Historically 'Paste Papers' were first used in the 16th century for book covers and end-papers....I taught a group of MA students, this week, at Camberwell College of the Arts in the Conservation department. After their tutor discussed the historical aspects of the craft - we pushed paste paper to its limits - the students created some stunning designs and patterns that will look amazing as end papers.
