Just kidding. Having them rebound as hardcovers sounds like a great idea to me, especially if you're referring back to them regularly. As long as "james601" doesn't get ahold of them, it's all good  |
Thanks, Lance. I remember as a kid, checking out paperbacks from the library that had been 'turned into' hardbacks. They looked great - the covers were both incorporated into the boards, and I think the spine was as well.
I read through some of these at least a couple of times each week - generally randomly thumbing through them for fun, not necessarily reference. I've been collecting horrible but complete copies, expressly for the purpose of re-binding as reading copies - only need a few more.
