Good idea. Won't have to make the decision for years, but would hope there will still be a choice of professional book binders a decade later.

I would think at least in my experience that you'd save a considerably amount on the price of a new hardbound copy, but you may also consider that many new books on sale at Oxbow are remainders so stocks will eventually run out and although it may be availble from others for some time not at this price.

Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
