¾ leather, remainder of boards covered with marbled paper
16 ¾” tall x 10 ½”wide x 2” thick
In the case documented, the objective was to join textblock and detached boards, without any elaborate conservation treatment. 
Board attachment by means of joint-tackets was chosen. To protect the joint-tackets and open joint area, solid dyed Japanese paper was applied. 
Materials and Tools used:
Kizukishi
Sekishu
Solid dyed Japanese Paper
Linen thread 20/2, right twist
Thin metal wire as threader
Awl with a needle approx. 1mm thick
Considerations
Preconditions for board attachment through joint-tackets are met:
Volume was laced into boards
Pronounced shoulders
Fairly strong paper
Solid boards
TEXTBLOCK
Since the spine has no decoration and the leather is relatively brittle, i decided to lift only the spine label, in order to hide a tacket.
The size of the book, determined the number of tackets (7). The number of holes for the lacing-in-thread, are distributed as evenly as feasible, along the spine. I make sure not to position a hole at the kettle stitches, nor at the positions of raised bands.
The thread chosen is thick enough to lie tightly in the hole made with the awl.
- For added strength, a strip of Kizukishi was pasted to the shoulder, extending from the base of the shoulder onto the spine by 1 or 2 mm.
- The awl enters the shoulder a few mm above its base and exits exits 4 to 8 mm into the spine
To aid in making the holes, the needle of the awl is slid along a block of wax. A hole is punched by pushing the awl with a turning motion of the hand. (An electric drill may also be used.)
- The loop end of the wire is used to pull the thread to exit at the shoulder hole. Both ends of the thread remain on the spine side. The open wire may now be removed from the loop end of the thread. The open ends of the thread are pulled through the loop.
The loop is pulled tight, until it rests at the apex of the shoulder on top of the two thread ends.
The thread may be fixed with paste or PVA.
- Inner hinge: a strip of Sekishu, length of textblock by 40 mm wide. One length of the paper strip is adhered to the shoulder, covering the thread; the remaining free part of the hinge, will be pasted against the board later.
BOARDS
Along the spine edges, board plus leather edges are first covered with Japanese paper. Position of the tackets is marked corresponding to the spine. Two holes each are made at one tacket position to accommodate the open ends of the thread.
- Leather along the spine edge unevenly worn away.
Consolidated boards with PVA , treated leather with a mixture of denatured alcohol and Klucel-G. Edge of leather and board edges were covered with one strip of solid dyed Japanese paper. 
Colored paper complementary with the board cover was chosen over Sekishu natural, to avoid the possibility of a white line showing on the cover board.
- Each pair of holes is positioned about 2mm from the outer board edge a few mm apart,
The tunnel slants at an angle through the thickness of the board toward the fore-edge. One thread end each is pulled through the board holes form the outside in and tied off with a square knot. 
The thread ends are trimmed to10 mm length. Apply some paste to knot and holes, flatten with a bone folder or lightly tap with a hammer. The inner hinge may be pasted out and adhered to the boards at this point. 
- The joint tackets showing on the outside of spine and boards are covered with just enough Japanese paper (in matching color) to cover the tackets.
To apply adhesive to small pieces of paper I use what may be called the indirect transfer method. 
- The width of the strip needed to cover the open joint can be kept as narrow a feasible. As final step leather and paper on the spine have been treated first with a mixture of Klucel G and denatured alcohol, second with SC2000, an acrylic wax.
