DIY Comic Book Covers for Old Books
I own quite a few frayed, tattered, worn and weathered books (mostly Archie comics). The thin and fragile pages make them very easy to rip while reading and I’ve read them a lot. A lot of these books also have ripped book covers. I decided to make new ones to preserve the inner pages. What…
