I am working to make my first book at Blurb. Have thought about some other book projects down the road. One will be a top of the line hardcover 25 book limited edtion I will market to the rare book libraires. (Possibly) I still have to see what type of work Blurb puts out. Every print on demand printer I have tried does BW with an off color cast to it. Luckily for me I only have 1 book that has lots of BW. The rest of my projects are all color.
The limited edtion book will be pretty costly to produce. Maybe $245 each. The books look nicer if a photo has a blank white page facing it. But every page cost $. But hand printed books may have a better chance at getting their foot into the door. But it beats hand printing the books like I did with my first limited edition book. I will poll the special collections dept to see if the commercial printed book will be accepted into their collections. I only place my work into the special collections as of now.
What have you produced or have plans for with your own book publishing?
