CONVERTING LOOSE-LEAF BOOKS TO BOUND COPIES

Following up on the comments by Dick Johnson and others about
the shortcomings of the loose-leaf format for numismatic books,
Bob Fritsch writes: "Like Dick, I had a problem with Bob Heath's
New England Medal catalogs.  Those binders were just too hard
to find.  So I asked Bob to deliver a complete set without any
holes punched in them.  I then took them to work and used a GBC
binder to put them together (using my binding spines of course).
The spines have several tongues that fit into the many holes
punched into the paper.  It makes a nice little package in a
handy portable format.  I know some of the copy houses also do
GBC style binding.  Get those stored catalogs out of the boxes
and bind them so you can use them!"
