Open-book conservation cradle wedges

Support old books open without straining the spine

A pair of 20 degree wedges that support each half of an open book from below: the spine is no longer forced flat, so old or tightly bound books can be read, photographed or shown open without cracking. The small lip stops the pages sliding.
