The silent auction will raise funds for The Morgan and its programs. Many of the auction items are made with, from, on, or otherwise featuring handmade kozo paper, made on site. There are also many other art objects for auction as well. Many well known artists, paper makers, and book artists are involved in this event and have made the items for the auction. And some not as well known - in fact, this leather journal, by me, is one of the items available (I didn't have any of their kozo paper to use). It features a full leather cover with an abstract floral detail, with marbled endpapers (marbled by me). Pages are Mohawk Superfine cream.

Love them!!
I love how traditional this binding looks. I am going to rejoin the bookbinders guild when I get back to NZ - there are a lot of old timers who use very old traditional tools and do some beautiful work by hand.

I would love to go! Wish I lived in the area! If you see Tom say "hi" from me!
Thanks!
Margaret, I didn't see Tom - actually I am nowhere near Cleveland, but would also have loved to go :)
Rhonda, your book is beautiful. Hope it brought in tons of money for the Morgan auction. See ya.
