Marbling and Endpapers

Marbled BoardsUnfortunately, the marbled paper used as the pastedowns in the original binding could not be reused. Instead of marbled paper, which was not available for all five volumes, I used a classic ivory, subtly iridescent paper shown below.

Boned End PapersAlso, the fore edge, head, and tail are marbled with colors consistent with the pastedowns, although the marbling is not as evident after the pages were re-sewn because it is virtually impossible to hand sew the pages and keep them as neat as they were in the original state without shaving them down, which again would remove the original marbling.
