8.5 x11 portrait photo books are available in two product configurations!
Custom Imagewrap Hardcover
Perfect size for a school memory book, family year book or professional portfolio, there are just so many possibilities with this classic shape and size.
Our imagewrap photo books are constructed using the highest quality pre-cut imagewrap boards and also are bound on a computer-controlled adhesive binding machine. The casebound binding service offers a spine lining sheet which is applied inside the front and back cover and secures the fold over of the cover sheet. Covers are laminated and pages are hot-glued to the cover, which again is ideal for all of our on-demand products.
