Volume 6 (1926-37) is the behemoth of the JJ Morris collection. 132 pages feature ephemera, leaving the journal lopsided. This unwieldy textblock needed an extra support of alum-tawed skin sewn to the spine so that the structure can flex freely and securely when handled.

"Let's talk about vacuums" - love it! Dust is a huge preoccupation for historic-house conservation teams and there's a lot of expertise, patience and care behind it's daily removal! Great to see exemplary work going on @PolesdenLaceyNT ❤🧹#NatureBeautyHistory #conservation
Let's talk vacuums; the cleaning kind. Our Collections Assistants have been removing dust from cushion covers & leather chairs: accumulations can form a crust, which may damage underlying surfaces and looks bad. What a difference! #CollectionsCare 1/2
