> I’ve created a vision piece for a client friend that is launching a 
> business in high-end real estate. It is an 8 x 8 inch cloth-bound 
> book. At this point it has 22 sheets (44 pages). The cover and binding 
> will be gold foil stamped. There are three stocks throughout the 
> inside: vellum for quotes and chapter dividers; a cotton sheet for 
> body copy pages; and a white gloss sheet for image pages. I have 
> handmade paper on the inside covers. I need around 500 of these 
> produced. My challenge is: I’ve begun consulting one of my favorite

> telling me that they can’t perfect bind a cloth, hardcover book with 
> so few pages.
