Pictorial Webster’s International Dictionary remake

Bookmaker Johnny Carrera of Quercus Press found old Pictorial Webster’s International Dictionary, from 1898, under his grandfather’s chair, in the summer of 1995. He was so fascinated by this finding, that he spent next decade of his life to remake the book using a Linotype machine. It is fully hand made and full process can be viewed on this video. One copy of remade book costs $3500.
