How do I preserve and display an antique book?
I have an antique Bible (1818) that's a family heirloom.
I've always kept it on my bookshelf so my family and I could see it.
Unfortunately, it's in rough shape. The leather cover is falling off, it's a dust magnet, and I fear that leaving it exposed to the open air every day isn't helping it.
Is there a proper way to preserve and take care of an old book without hiding it away in a closet?
Thanks in advance for any and all answers.
It sounds like this book has a lot of personal and sentimental value, so cost isn't as much of an issue as it ordinarily might me. This document should prove helpful. The bulk of it comprises a DIY solution, showing you how to make your own custom book box. However, at the end, there are a few links to directories of people who can make a custom box for you:

These people may be able to help you:

They manufacture a series of boxes custom-designed for specific modern 1st editions, so you probably won't find a specific box which works for you, but someone from that site should be able to point you to a reliable 3rd party, if you have no success with the 1st link.
Good luck!
