Restoring 1920s minute books

The museum holds the #cafc board minutes from 1921 to 1984 but such historically important items need to be protected.

Our friends at @TheBookBindery, their workshop is in Landsdowne Mews, have cleaned, restored and created a special box to hold the 1st two volumes.

We're raising funds to have the next series of minute books restored and boxed so if you know anyone who wants to fund or sponsor the next book and box get in touch.

  • How much?
  • The first two and the specially made box were about £650 IIRC.

    It is very labour intensive work.

    The next book chronoglically is much bigger and in worse condition.

    We're waiting on the book binders to give us a quote but I'd expect it to be at least the same.
