My new vice are custom-bound volumes.

Here are three I just got back and they are awesome.

I haven't aired it out. It's part of the provenance. Galen130 private msg quote post Address this user
Stephen King was my first 'read' author in junior high. My dad let me borrow and read his 1st edition copy of 'The Stand'. I still have it. What I don't have is a signed copy of ANY of his books. Too damn expensive. He doesn't do signings outside of the Northeast either...I believe.

Nice volumes!!!

I’ve seen people do this. What’s the cost? Who would I go to??

Houchen Bindery is the only one I'ved used, but there are others.

The cost varies.

The two "plain" volumes in my pic are pretty much base price, $35 - although I think they just hiked their prices.

The divider lines cost a little extra ($2 ?)

The Gunslinger volume had about an $8 surcharge because it was greater than 2" thick.

The Star Wars volume has a printed cover and so it was roughly double the cost if memory serves.

Im going to this with my MAX Punisher series when I find some missing issues. The series is also broken up into parts so it would make some nice smaller bounds. I forget the company I was looking at, but they could do the Punisher logo on the spine and I can’t decide on white or red foil lettering.
