Whidbey Island artist, Paul A.  McClintock, specializes in the craft of 18th-century bookbinding.  Growing up in a household of talented artisans, Paul learned many traditional 18th-century disciplines from his parents and was involved in living history events throughout the Midwest during his youth.  For a period of time Paul served as an interpreter at the historic Daniel Boone Home in Defiance, MO, leading tours and demonstrations about the daily life of the Boone family.  Paul's hand-made journals, sketchbooks and ledgers can be found in museums, historical sites and personal collections of many notable Living History interpreters. 

This past year Paul has been traveling coast to coast demostrating his bookbinding skills.  From the Ronald Reagen Presidential Library and it's Colonial American Experiance to the 18th century Market and Fair held at George Washington's Mount Vernon Estate.  He could also be found at Historic Fort Frederick in Maryland for their  four day Market Fair and the Simple Treasures Show of Historic Walker Homestead in Massachusetts. 

It has been a year of growth and the BINDERY at the sign of the CROWN and BOOK is looking forward to future growth and more events.
