I know they cut up manuscripts to sell the illuminated letters. But this dude cuts up a modern book about manuscripts and is selling the illustrations... As 'illuminated letter L' for just 2 euro.

reused bookbindings in bookbindings. A common practice but until now slightly forgotten in the study of bindings. So a series of blogs about 'bindings in bindings'. #1: reused wooden boards. boundforhistory.com/2023/12/07/b...

a (reused) karolingian board with a peculiar number of lacing paths: 2x5 holes. Can't find any reference for this type of attachment, not even Szirmai. Trying to figure out how this would have worked out... but it can't. Wish i could see the other side of the board. Cod Sang 205
