Condition on Receipt: The quarter cloth and decorated paper case 
binding was in good condition. The sewing was intact but a few of the 
pages were loose. Most of the pages were in relatively sound condition 
even though some had a few small tears and some losses. 
Treatment Report: The pH was recorded before and after treatment; 
before 5.0, after 8.0. The volume was collated and disbound. The inks 
were tested for solubility. The head, tail, and pages were dry cleaned 
and nonaqueously buffered (deacidified) with a suspension of 
magnesium oxide particles in a perfluoro compound. The pages were 
encapsulated in polyester film. The volume was post bound in two full 
cloth bindings. A leather label was stamped in gold foil. The book 
plates were removed from the original binding and were adhered to the 
front pastedowns of the new bindings.
