Broken Text Block

I love it when someone is attached to a certain copy of the Bible and they can't think of parting with it for a new one. This Bible belonged to someone in my small group at church. She's had it since her early days in college and just couldn't think of getting another one. That's where I come in!

This particular issue was interesting. The text block looked as if it had been originally created to be sewn, but instead it had a "perfect binding" which means the spine was just cut flush and glued together, however, it did not hold and came apart. I was glad to get it back together so she can use it for many more years.
