265706 Thomas Conroy 2018‑04‑12 Four Whatsis, not bookbinding.
O Galoots:
A friend of mine, aa bookbinder with twenty-five or thirty years experience,
sent me this:
https://www.skinnerinc.com/auctions/3093M/lots/415
saying that they looked like any creasers or polishers he had ever seen. Or, in
fact, like any bookbinding tools he had ever seen.  I'm right there with him: I
haven't the foggiest notion of what they are. There is just one thing I am sure
of: they are not for bookbinding.
Does anyone recognize any of these things? Or t least have a guess about them/
