2920: Method and Production

Due to the fact that hand in is drawing in much too quickly for me to deal with, I have decided that my bookmaking skills are poor enough to qualify myself to buy my way to success in terms of the end product. This is rationalised by the fact it is so near to the end of the course and I want at least a week to sort everything out for the show and whatnot.
James offered a bookbinding service that is next to none in terms of producing premium quality work. Spink and Thackray in Leeds, offer a whole load of bespoke bookcrafting services, although not the cheapest, I didnt want to duck out on quality, so I am willing to pay the price. Taking into account I have to screenprint and hand foil the map of Tamriel as well as waiting for my blacksmith to finish my draft dagger.
