Enchiridion Fungorum in Europa Media 
Condition when received: This small cloth-bound book had torn hinges 
with one cover completely separated. The text block was split in two 
locations. The medium-weight cords were in poor condition, but the linen 
thread seemed strong. The text block Was Sewn two-on-one. The paper 
was not brittle, it tested at pH 6.2, and there was no foxing evident. 
Work performed and materials used: Because the text block’s fore 
edge, head, and tail had been tinted with a Water soluble dye, 
deacidfication was not considered. The book was disassembled and minor 
paper repairs were performed. It was reseWn with linen thread. It was 
placed in a new cloth-covered binders-board case. Parts of the original 
cover were salvaged and glued to the neW Case,
