Description from Caxton website: “The talk will introduce carbon-dating in book collector-friendly terms, survey our proof-of-concept project to carbon-date dubiously “medieval” and “early modern” woodblocks, and explore new evidence that they are instead antiquarian inventions. They are not fakes, intended to deceive. Instead, they shed light on a long-forgotten way that early book collectors explored and honored print heritage by commissioning new “old” woodblocks.”
