I see what Cliff is referring to and in a set of this quality it would be nice if each book were unblemished, but I shared Trys's perspective that I might never get them (the road to publishing the VE has been long) and I am satisfied with the quality. It would be good if feedback were given to the printer that we would like the future books to be similar in quality to the initial printings.<br /><br />On a different note---congratulations on your wedding Leah!<br /><br />JackJack Hovenierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11159491516449202571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2223827637874197433.post-36607924261666473852010-05-09T09:00:36.223-07:002010-05-09T09:00:36.223-07:00Upon closer inspection I see what Cliff is describ...Upon closer inspection I see what Cliff is describing and the problem exists on the lower left hand corner as well. It's as though the binder wasn't set to the proper height and what ever part of the binder 'creases' the cover to create the 'fold groove' didn't extend clear to the edges of the books. (Please note I don't know the technical terms for what I expressed above in single quotes.)<br /><br />That said, I, like Cliff, am happy to have the volumes as I have never been really confident that I would ever receive them.Tryshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04591647951126579179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2223827637874197433.post-40577341957172041942010-05-07T18:24:43.111-07:002010-05-07T18:24:43.111-07:00My books arrived on 5/6, but they were unfortunate...My books arrived on 5/6, but they were unfortunately not up to the standards of the early books. The last five volumes (26 through 31) were poorly bound, with dents and binding imperfections in the upper left-hand corner of the front and the upper right-hand corner of the spine. These aren't shipping problems, either; they're entirely binding flaws that Transcontinental-O'Keefe let pass through. Glad to get 'em, but certainly wish they had been up to the quality of the other volumes.cliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04111491427562709348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2223827637874197433.post-64647990140636994552010-05-06T21:44:48.904-07:002010-05-06T21:44:48.904-07:00Still waiting.
