(...) out. The new spine was beautifully recreated and ties in beautifully with the old. I was amazed with the meticulous attention to detail displayed by the restoration team. Thank you! This family bible will be cherished and passed down for many more generations.

(...) markings I've made over the years. I went online and researched where I could have my Bible rebound and found Leonard's. I'm so glad I did. The leather is beautiful and my Bible is sturdy. It should last for years to come. The workmanship and communication was superb! Such an excellent job in restoring my Bible. It was worth the investment. Thank you so much!

(...) lovely, comfortable to the touch, and I enjoy reading it whether on a desk or in my lap. The folks at Leonards are very quick to respond to questions, and they helped me choose a binding that would be right for me. It was as they said, a long wait, but in a pandemic, many things are not as they once were. But my Bible was well worth waiting for. I look forward to sending my original Bible (of 30+ years of hard use) to them. I had it rebound once, but not by Leonards. I can hardly wait!

(...) cleaned off where I attempted to fix it myself. I have another one I’ll send you very soon. Thank you!!

(...) finished and how to make a payment for the job. I just received the Bible back and it looks far better than I could have imagined. I’m very pleased with the finished product and would recommend Leonard's to anyone whose Bible needs an overhaul.

(...) collection passed from my great-great-great-grandmother, Lavinda Nichols, on down through the generations to my grandfather.

The most interesting and valuable part of the collection was an old family Bible (King James Version). It was printed in 1851 in Auburn or Rochester, New York, and it probably belonged to my great-great-great grandmother's parents or grandparents before she received it. The Bible was in terrible condition. In large part, it was still bound, but the binding was quite fragile and falling apart. The Bible had no cover. Additionally, several of the pages were either loose or missing. For many years, I dreamed of having it restored, but I thought that would be very difficult to do so.

Earlier this year, I learned about Leonard's Book Restoration while searching online for antique book restorers. On the business's website, I looked at pictures of their previous work with Bibles and antique books. The work was of high quality, so I decided to give Leonard's a chance. I emailed pictures of the Bible, gave a description of the work I wanted done, and asked if a rebinding/restoration was even possible. I promptly received a response from the staff stating that the work could be done, complete with a cost and time estimate for the work, as well as instructions on how to ship the Bible and order form to the office.

The repair work took about three months to complete. I received the rebound and restored Bible about two days ago, and it is beautiful! The Bible was rebound in a cover made of fine, sturdy leather. Any loose pages were re-attached in their proper places. The staff even went to the trouble of finding the missing pages of the book before rebinding it. What was once a loosely-bound collection of pages is now an aesthetically pleasing, and functional, Bible, which will be proudly displayed in my house. I can actually handle and read this Bible without fear of the book falling apart and crumbling to dust!

Needless to say, my experience with Leonard's Book Restoration was positive! The staff was very helpful and attentive to my needs, and the quality of their work is top-notch. I recommend them to anyone who needs a Bible, or any other book, repaired!

(...) it with a beautiful new leather cover. This is the second family Bible that Leonard's has restored for me and both were examples of the quality workmanship and attention to detail they have with their business. Leonard's communication during the project and their customer service is outstanding. It is certainly a pleasure doing business with a firm that has this level of integrity and pride in their work.

(...) found Leonard's Book Restoration! My bible is durable, useable and will last and looks new! So thankful! Communication from the staff was incredible all along the way. Highest recommendations all around! God Bless you all!
