Remembering the smell of old glue in that Paris bindery

I was in Paris a few years back and wandered into this tiny bindery. The air was thick with the smell of animal glue, something you don't find much anymore. It made me think about how we all now use man-made glues to save time. I miss that old way, the patience it took. Sometimes I try to bring a bit of that back in my own work.

Animal glue, really? That's wild.

Wait, isn't that in some food too? Makes you think about what's in everything else, lol.
