Years ago (read early 1970s) I copied a section of one of the oldest printed books (about 20 years after Gutenberg) as part of a summer intern job. We used a view camera and simply laid a glass pane on top of each page and rotated the mount to provide for the 180 degree angle. A little darkroom magic and the results were stunning.
