Gregath
basic color printed hard covers carry a clear lamination for eye-catching appeal and long-lasting
durability. From bold graphics, one of a kind text and colorful photos to Coats-of-Arms – this is
a great way to add
color
and interest to your hard cover presentation! Additionally, from a
marketing standpoint, many bookstores will not stock books on their shelves,
unless they have a full color cover. This is also a
great way of tying books in a
(family) series together but yet make them almost completely different as well.
With the 4-color cover you have the front, back, and spine you can design and
add different elements into that are all included in the binding charge, rather than a
specific, set size in foil on front OR
back, as with deluxe covers.
This
full color process is a cost effective hard
binding alternative to the dust jacket or custom plate imprint. Note,
however, full
color
hard covers do not include flap
or end sheet imprint/printing in standard pricing. Special end sheets
that include printing can be ordered,
but the most economical are natural tone, blank end sheets. All books are
guaranteed for quality of workmanship
and materials.
Books, as part of an ongoing series, can be recognizably part of a series - without being exactly the same bindings. Each book has it's own "soul" - celebrate it.
Perfect for books up to 2"
thick or slightly larger.
Standard
offerings are based on the project size. Contact us if you wish a particular
service, or selection.
Standard color binding methods based on your actual book size:
Side-sewn - square backed due to size
Oversewn - more archival but less economical
Double-Fan Adhesive - LBI certified for books up to 2-7/8" thick
We offer full color
softbinding methods in a variety of types as well.
Please note that, though LBI standards do not endorse color lamination, this product meets or exceeds as many standards for quality, durable binding as we could find.
