Beverly Hills Bookbinding Service

This is the first part of my review. It is the result of only a telephone conversation to find out some facts in order to have my wife’s dissertation from many! years ago rebound as a surprise. Jack took the time on the phone to explain the process, options and costs, and what additional services he might be able to help me with — e.g. finding a reliable printer to reprint the pages on acid free museum quality paper. Having talked with a few binder companies, I knew I had finally found someone I wanted to entrust this manuscript to. I am to meet with Jack next week — so stay tuned.

Jack did some work for me and I was very pleased. I highly recomend him.

Simply the finest craftsman in the business! Jack, who has taken over his dad’s business is also a very kind and friendly man. He restored a book for me from the turn of the century, it was in bad shape, but not anymore. It is as if he knows magic. He somehow incorporated the old part of the book cover with the new, matched it up beautifully and brought it to a new fully restored gorgeous book. He has been binding trial transcripts for the firm I work at for decades and does an extrememly beautiful job every time! I highly recommend Beverly Hills Bookbinding to anyone!

Owner Jack is THE BEST! Always goes above and beyond and their work is world class!

Unbelievable quality run by the nicest man, Jack. On numerous occasions I have needed a rush job and he never turns me away. Such fantastic gift ideas. Nothing like receiving a gift with a personal touch.

Finding a bindery in LA is almost like finding a pair of Y-​3 sneakers at Target. UCLA used to have a bindery service in Culver City but that service has moved to Oakland.
When I was about to give up, I decided another attempt with
. And I found Jack @ Beverly Hills Bookbinding Service. Jack runs a bindery on the 2^nd floor of a shop on Beverly Drive. This is the same BH shopping stretch where Williams Sonoma, Crate and Barrel are located. He has restored books as old as 14c and binded film scripts, old bibles etc.
After speaking to him on the phone, I decided to drop by today with my dissertation which is almost 2 years due to be binded for my personal collection. Jack offers leather and cloth binding. The base price is $ 200 and $ 100 respectively. Cow hide leather will an assortment of colors are offered. Type setting for the cover adds another $ 20 to $ 50 depending on complexity. The lead time is about 4 to 6 weeks.
I will post again when I collect my copies…
