I’m downsizing my bookbinding studio in preparation for a move. Come by this Sunday, December 15 from 10 am to 4 pm to pick up a treasure. 10010 Main Street, Penngrove (40 miles north of San Francisco). If you can’t make it, contact me to see if what you want has sold. You must move what you buy yourself, but you’ll have until late January to do it.
