Saw a shop switch from hand sewing every signature to a $900 sewing machine, and the whole feel of the books changed
Back in 2019 my old boss in Portland still sewed every book by hand, but after he got a machine the spines stopped opening flat the way they used to. Anyone else notice machine sewn bindings just do not crack the same way when you read them?
