For Oversized Custom Leather Hardcover Book
Working with Ludwig was a dream come true. I needed a book custom made for a college honor society. I was something old world style that would give the students that feeling of tradition and honor of belonging to something bigger than themselves. He took my ideas and made a book that not only was I proud of but both students and administration wanted to get their picture taken with. The quality of this book will allow it to be around for 100 years of dedications and YES, I asked for a book to be designed that was that large. Ludwig, I was told by more than one person that you could see the love I have for my students as well as the love you put into creating that book. Thank you for making us both look good and the students extremely proud to sign their name in something so special!

All placed orders are 50% Deposit, Balance due on Order completed, if for any reason you like to cancel your Order, your Deposit is refunded in Full. If I already purchased specific materials for your Order and I can't use them otherwise or return them to the Vendor, the Purchase price is deducted from your deposit. (To explain, I printed a suite of wedding invites and the nervous Mother wanted to see several custom Mixed Ink proofs to see color variations. As such inks can;t be returned or stocked, they were charged against their deposit, as eventually the Groom to be walked away and the Wedding was off)
