NOTICE: For the foreseeable future we are NOT offering special runs of colors other than black, or types and textures other than that shown below. We have encountered too many situations in which the customer requests, say, 100 copies of a burgundy cover in "Executive Suede", and so we order the shipment in -- only to have the customer change their mind and decide they'd really rather have Navy Blue instead. We refuse to even take a chance on that scenario playing out again. Sorry. Please do not ask for any cover other than black, portrait orientation, letter-size, Linen texture. If this size, color and texture isn't what you need, then we are unable to accommodate you at this time. Thank you.

NOTICE: We have completely discontinued all of the optional covers and features listed on this page, as we now refuse to interact in any way at any time with the cover supplier, Channelbind. We'll use up our present stocks of black, linen series covers over the next three or four years, then switch to another product.

Items on this page, except black, letter-size, linen series covers, are no longer available
 

We often receive inquiries asking for more info regarding our book binding services. No problem.

We carry (stock) only the linen series, in black. We stock all sizes of this cover, always. That means you can always obtain a quick book (or ten or twenty) from us, without having to wait for us to order in custom sizes and/or colors.

If you don't like the linen series (see the texture of the cover below), or if you don't like black, there's still hope, but only if you need twenty or more books. If you want less than 20, you're stuck with linen, in black. We won't special-order different colors/types/textures for orders less than 20 books.

For orders of 20 books and up we can offer the following cover colors depending on the type of cover desired; the prices of different cover textures vary; not all textures are available in all colors; not all textures are available in all sizes:

Linen, available in portrait or landscape modes:
Black
Navy Blue
Maroon
Gray
White
Forest Green

Leatherette, available in portrait or landscape modes:
Black
Navy Blue
Maroon
Forest Green

Executive Suede, available in portrait or landscape modes:
Black
Navy Blue
Brown

Padded Leather, available in portrait or landscape modes:
Black
Navy Blue

At this time we do not have acceptable images of covers other than the linen series. We'll post them when available.

One Caveat:
Not all covers are available in all sizes; unfortunately what's available from the factory seems to change without much rhyme or reason, so all of the above are considered special orders and are subject to availability. Inquire. Remember that all orders for any color other than black, and any texture series other than linen, requires a minimum count of twenty.

Embossing, Foil-Stamping (etc.) and Cover Art:
We're often asked about embossing or foil-stamping. We don't offer embossing per se; we haven't invested in the machinery because we see new methods on the near horizon which will render most current stamping techniques obsolete. Embossing is available from the factory that makes our covers, and we'll be happy to inquire on your behalf re pricing, quantities required, etc. The prices vary greatly depending on artwork submitted, quantity, etc. In short, the whole thing is a hassle. Instead, we suggest the following solution:

Inkjet Book Cover Solution:
We can offer a particular white hard-cover which is manufactured to accept color or black and white image transfers, created by laser or inkjet printers, then transferred to the book cover. This is a permanent, water-resistant solution which can be used to cover nearly the entire front cover. These particular covers are available only to accommodate manuscripts from 1 to 150 sheets. The covers themselves measure 9 x 11 inches, portrait mode only. We do not print or apply these transfers -- instead we will include the sheets (one for each cover ordered), and you may print and apply your own cover graphics. This is a new technology, and we do not yet have pricing information. Will post as it becomes available.

Volume Pricing:
We're often asked about volume discounts. Here's what we can (and can't) do: For any orders up to twenty books, our posted prices hold without discount. For orders of twenty and up: First, please understand that while the factory we deal with produces the best quality hard-covers we can find, they are often, well, OBTUSE as business people. Please count on a lead time of at least 2-3 weeks, and that's just for us to obtain the covers in your choice of color and/or texture. Our own turn-around time, after we receive the covers, is from one to perhaps ten days, depending on the quantity of the order.

More about volume pricing:
There's even more hope for the slight-of-pocket-book.
When we bind individual books, we use two complete and separate methods of binding. We know this sounds weird. Each method we use is an accepted and reliable mode of binding in and of itself, used without a problem around the world today. However, being paranoid retired pilots and deep-sea divers, we don't trust anything. So we adopted the double-binding method we use today. If you're a cheapskate, however, we're willing to bind your books using only one method. Is this one method reliable and secure? We've never had a page slip using this one method alone. But we were always afraid it might happen someday, so we went to the double-binding system, just to be sure. We mention all this because, if you're truly miserly, you can save some loot by having us bind using only one method. For instance, our price to double-bind a single book, or an order up to 20 books, is $24.95 (black, linen texture, etc. etc.). We will always double-bind small orders, up to 20 books. But on larger orders, by having us single-bind, you might save as much as $10/book, depending on several factors which would be discussed at the time you place your order. 

Questions not answered?

Please inquire.
