After cleaning



Hudson Terraplane -- General Service Bulletins Binder (empty) -- Before & After

The Hudson Terraplane was built between 1932 -- 1938 (nearly 100 years ago now...). 













Interesting binder mechanism,  The three rings are 1/2 circles that overlap each other...  To open, you press this lever and the binding folds in half (see picture below).














Cleaned & colored in the faded/worn areas...  Looks much better.
Before adding color (trimmed all the loose threads first...). 

In the process of adding color... 

Finished.  Looks pretty good.  Better but not too nice or too shiny...
