• Cobden-Sanderson’s Workshop

  
  — Authority:
  Cobden-Sanderson’s Workshop, Illustrated London News, March 1890, p. 323. My Collection. The quality of Cobden-Sanderson’s work is perhaps only matched by the size of his ego.

Recently the value of that saying was brought home to me when I discovered that my local scrapbooking stores seem to be carrying We R Memory Keepers Cinch supplies instead of Zutter Bind-it-All supplies.  The Owire coils used by ...
