This is an absolutely delightful production. The paper is weighty and has a great tactile feel. The binding and cover materials--all the materials, are top notch. I love the subtle touches like a soft lining material inside the slipcase, the rounding of the case to match the rounding of the spine. The artwork is beautifully reproduced and all elements of the design and layout are thoughtful and evince a strong personal touch. I didn't want to put the book down, not just because it's a favorite story, but also because the book itself was so enjoyable to handle and read.
I really love leather bound books, something about the smell and how it feels in your hands. Curling up in a nice chair or by a fireplace and just being to hold and read a beautiful book, for me its instantly relaxes me and makes me forget about lifes daily stress. This book is what i picture as an example of the perfect book. It smells (i know thats probably weird to some people) and feels amazing. The illustrations are so beautiful. Even the feel of the pages are so nice. I even love the fact you can open up the maps inside the book and still read the story while leaving them open. My only regret is stumbling onto this publisher so late. I missed out on treasure island and it breaks my hear a little. I hope they come out with more beautiful classics in the future. Really love the product. This is my first book review but i really wanted to write about this book. It took me book to being a kid and reading a fantasy book for the first time.
The deluxe edition of Peter Pan is a very beautiful book indeed. The quality is superb. The binding. The paper. The letterpress printing. The tipped-in illustrations on the brown paper. The gorgeous endpapers. The smell. Even the slipcase is luxurious with the full suede-lining and the edges matching the round spine. I am proud to own this book.
This edition is a pleasure to hold.
Stunning production- Attention to detail!!!
