Description
This images show nother way a book might have been bound to prevent damage, as well as newspaper or magazine articles that were pasted in. The book is a french textbook of sorts and it is interesting that the articles also reference the french language and culture! Perhaps the owner used them for a class project or to learn more about the language they were trying to master.
