April 2014: Normal people put plastic or brown paper on their books as covers, and then some do this to their books

So normal people put plastic covers on their books, or brown paper or put in cardboard covers. If very rich, they go and do it with leather.

And then you have the Kfrafft family of Ulm for Munster Cathedral in 1506 to hold the gospels and the Epistles from the Bibles. This is in the British Museum.

HOLY SMOKES.
