I really enjoyed watching this man do his work, and deeply appreciate the devotion, patience and skill that he has developed. Thank you for posting this video.
I love everything about this. The care that he took to restore it, the beautiful way he spoke about his process and of books themselves, the fondness for the book held by the father and, of course, the passing on of the book to his daughter. Beautiful.
What a great documentary and I absolutely love the customer's story with that book!

7:28 I found this so sad and yet so beautiful when they removed the initials of his high school sweetheart. Such a heavy reminder of the passage of time. Great documentary. Thank you.

This touched my heart. This craftsman's love for restoring books is honorable and endearing. My mother loves to read books and gratefully passed her love to my brother and I. The father's reaction made my eyes water, you could see his love for the book instantly and passing it to his daughter was a proud moment; a present from his youth. The only part that bothered me was what the father said in the beginning - his daughter was embarrassed to take it on her journey. If anything she should have been worried about destroying it more, but that's just my opinion. If my father had given me that book in either condition I would cherished it. Thank you for sharing his beautiful craft. Love from America! ♥️ P.S. I tried to translate this into Japanese but it would only allow a small section. Sorry.
Most Japanese students use digital dictionaries these days which may explain why the daughter said she was embarrassed. I have some English-Korean dictionaries in my classroom but have never used them because students all use their phones now. It’s just easier, faster and cooler.
I give many thanks to this man for his ability and creativity that is needd to salvage old books. This dying art of book reading needs to be replenished.

You Japanese are amazing people. I so much respect your respect for the old and the value of things that accumulate over the years and passed from one generation to the other. Many greetings from Turkey!
This is adorable and absolutely a thing worth watching. I once learned a trade myself and I have the highest respect for the artisan, Mr. Okano Nobuo.

This is one of the best restoration that is shown on KZbin! Really touching and has left me speechless. THIS IS ART AT ITS BEST!!

The Japanese have always amazed me with their dedication to craft. I hope one day to live there and find a proper master to study under for my own craft.
There's something so touching about taking great pride in things which others might dismiss as shallow. Both the father's love for a simple book, and the craftman's passion in repairing simple books are beautiful.

Linxafgm A bookbinder and restorer of antique books. He can make books from scratch, from the sewings to the cover, and I've seen him restore old books like this where the binding is crushed and the cover is flaking to pieces.

Alan Horton If I understand the video correctly, the purple bits of the pages were simply cut off. Surely, this cannot be possible every time can it? What if the pages have writings on them all the way to the edges, or close enough to the edges that cutting anything off is impossible?
@yerk39 жыл бұрын
TheGodOfPegana Usually there's a big border between the edge of the text and the edge of the page. You can see the guy here only cuts off the damaged section, though he does seem to cut off a wide bit of the edge of the page. The bindery my dad works at has a machine that does this, and they try to shave as little off the edge as they have to in order to straighten the edge.
