Spine & Signature started in 2017 in the back room of a terraced house in Stroud, Gloucestershire. Mara Ellison had spent the previous eight years working as a conservator at a regional archive, repairing maps, ledgers, and parish records that nobody else had time for. She liked the quiet of it. She liked that the work required you to slow down and look closely. When the archive's funding was cut in the spring of 2016, she spent a winter thinking about what to do next, and by January 2017 she had a bench, a press, and a small notice in the window of the local art supply shop.
