Custom Bindings

Juniper Books oversees numerous binding projects for clients, in both leather and cloth, to create beautiful gift or display editions, preserve or restore heirloom books, and for any other reason a new binding is desired.

Since Thatcher’ experience with books is very broad from building book collections and designing custom book covers, he can expertly advise on whether a new binding is appropriate for a project, and if so design all aspects of it from color to titles and endpapers.  Juniper Books can also oversee printing of books – we have worked with our numerous interior design clients to print and bind portfolio and project books for example.

Below are photos from some of recent binding projects which have included:

  • Custom leather bindings for Pulitzer Prize winning novels
  • Rebinding of antique leather law book
  • Custom leather binding a selection of Milton Friedman books for a client’s home library
  • Custom leather binding of two books related to the Beatles with nice picture frame style bindings
  • Custom leather and cloth bindings for interior design project books
  • Custom leather binding of gift books for a university
  • Custom leather binding of Catcher in the Rye as a product for sale from Juniper Books since a leather edition was never approved by J.D. Salinger

Juniper Books can also assist with:

  • Custom box making – ie clamshell boxes to house rare and valuable books or ephemera and documents – these can be made to look like books on the shelf
  • Slipcases to house and protect books
  • Portfolios to house invitations, ephemera, documents, project plans, etc.

Basically if it involves paper, books, leather or any combination of those, we can help.
