Hand painted edges by me. There are 6 or 7 places where the page tore while I was pulling the pages apart after painting and they are tapped like the one shown in the photos. They are all fairly small like the one shown. Handmade bookmark by me as well. Please keep in mind that I am not a professional and do mess up when painting. All books are 100% readable, but there may be slight markings of paint on the edges of some pages (though not likely with the hardcovers I paint). Willing to negotiate and/or bundle.
