Bespoke & Traditional
Bespoke registers
As well as the stock items featured on our online shop, specially produced registers are supplied to many authorities to form an interesting and historic record for all time.
Books are available in standard rulings and binding, but alternative styles can be produced in accordance with individual requirements. Examples of the most popular types are reproduced below and on the Binding page of this website.
The title page, when emblazoned with armorial bearings or other symbols, can in itself be a work of art which greatly enhances the overall appearance of the book.
As well as being used as visitors books, these volumes can also be used as memorial books, lists of donors, etc.
Books can be gold blocked with armorial bearings, badges, authorities' names or other wording and slip cases in leather can also be supplied as protective containers.
