Two and Three Section Conservation Pamphlet // Adventures in Bookbinding

In this video I demonstrate the 2 and 3 section version of a binding structure proposed by Randy Silverman in 1987 as a conservation binding specification. Silverman defines a pamphlet as a booklet of up to 3 sections. I propose this structure is also ideal for binding new material.

These videos are only possible thanks to the support of Patreons, and if you are able, your support would be greatly appreciated.

The EVA I use is Evasol.

Any PVA or EVA designed for bookbinding or for paper is fine. For steps where you might get the alignment wrong you might consider using mix (paste PVA mix).

I did the editing and imposition for the Cobden-Sanderson pamphlet used in the two section version. I'll share this PDF with Patreons.
