You have inspired me to bind!

Do you have any legibility issues with these? When you open them up to the middle, do you lose much/any of the dialogue at the fold?

Could you post a pic or two of what they look like opened up to read?

Thanks!
Carson

I agree with Carson, I think I am going to have to end up binding mine too. They look so amazing, I would love to have a full VH1 set looking like that on my bookshelf. :D

I remember seeing someone else posting books bound like these in the past, but I completely forgot about them until today.

As Carson said, could you post some pics of one in the middle? I am also curious if any content is lost from the binding too.

Thanks for sharing these here, I am very jealous of these books!
Where are we going and why am I in this hand-basket?

Here is a photo of one of my Solar volumes. It's hard to judge from the photo, that top word balloon on the left page looks like it's lost but it's not, taking a photo from the top obscures it but it's still completely readable.
