A life written down deserves a real spine.
Whether it is a parent's memoir, a 'This Is Your Life' book for a milestone birthday or your own story for the grandchildren, we print and hand-bind it as a hardcover book with the author's name in gold.
Memoirs are usually A4 portrait, 60 to 300 pages, often with a section of photographs. We print double-sided on 100gsm paper, and the book opens flat so photos across a spread read properly.
Tips: - Put the author's name on the front cover and the spine; keep the title short so the foil reads from across a room - Leatherette in burgundy or black feels like a gift; buckram wears better if the book will be read often - Order one extra copy for the author to sign
