Hello and thanks in advance for any responses that may help me.

I am working on something right now that will end up as a 45-50 page book of the faces of the sport of paintball. Here's a quick example:

I want the paper in which the book is printed on to be of the highest quality. Perhaps a hard cover with a sleeve. I planned on printing about 50 to start with to see how well they would sell and then go from there.

In the end I want it to come out looking nice and well organized.

Oh, and landscape style printing if that makes any difference.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

GREAT SHOT. I think that Asuka Books is the place for you. You get (I believe) 50% off your first order. You can order just one book if you like. You have your choice of paper, hard cover, soft cover. Really an outstanding company.

If you are wanting to print it yourself check out the Ztra digital perfect bound albums from Album Inc.

This site was recommended on another forum. http://asukabook.com/
I dont have any personal experience with them, but as I said, they were recommended. Good Luck.

www.mypublisher.com and www.lulu.com are a couple of other sites that will let you print books up for a good price. I havent tried either but thier product looks decent.
