I received my books back today. It turned out to be such a great decision to entrust them to Midwesterners (regional humor)! You folks did a super job. Thank you so much for the high quality work. I am so happy.

Good Morning Ms. Laura and Grimm Bindery,
My book (‘A Reader, W.S. Maugham’) arrived Saturday morning and I am writing to thank you. This is my first experience binding a book and I am delighted! The book looks terrific and much better than I could have imagined. I also appreciate that you conscientiously called and kept in touch with me. Since I knew little of book bindery or even that this service existed, I deferred most of the decision-making to you. You apparently made all the right choices because the book looks great!
Although the book is not valuable, it is nearly 70 years old, and has been used, abused, and thoroughly read. It was passed down from my grandmother, to my mother, to my sister to me. Once again, I am re-reading my favorites and I have you to thank.
With kindest regards, I remain
Gratefully yours,
Robert H.

I wanted to let you know that I have received my cookbook and it looks fantastic. I was thrilled to see it had arrived and exited to open it. I did not expect to be as emotional as I was. The cookbook has meant a lot to me over the years and to see how it had been restored was wonderful. Thank you to you and your team for the excellent job you did on my cook book. It will now last for many more years to come.
Thank You

The book was received. You did a beautiful job! I’m so pleased to be able to return it in good condition to my teacher.
Thank you so much for all your attention to detail and impeccable workmanship.
I’m sure it will be more meaningful to sensei, but the most important thing is that the book can go another 50 years being passed around to new students :), probably a lot longer!
Best,
Susan

I greatly appreciate the outstanding/exceptional job Grimm Bindery performed on rebinding/refurbishing my Bible. Previously, my bible was so damaged that it looked like a “Dead Sea Scroll”! 🙂
This is the second bible that I’ve had refurbished by Grimm. Grimm did an equally exceptional job on my most recently submitted bible. I also received my bible in the estimated time period as indicated by Grimm.
Additionally, the customer service was professional and outstanding. In particular, Laura was exceptional at disclosing the various options offered by Grimm.
I plan to have Grimm rebind/refurbish other books.
Best regards,
Sloan

Hi Laura,
Just a note to tell how pleased I am with the new binding of my little book. The new art work is very nice and much appreciated. I was always disappointed with the “fuzzy” art work on the original and the canvas texture makes it obvious that it was one of Lucia’s paintings.
I wish I could have afforded to have it hard bound originally but having these three copies are very nice for my bookshelf and for my children.
Thank you for a very nice job.
My best,
Steve Dibbern

Dear Laura & others who worked on my book “365 Bedtime Stories”
From my first call and conversation with Laura, I knew your Bindery was the one I wanted to bring back to life a book that belonged to my husband and one I read to my son (now 33) many years ago. My son’s father passed away when he was 9 years old. So, this book is special for my son.
You all did a fabulous job. I am more than happy with the results of your efforts to restore my book.
Many, many thanks to you all. I will pass on the name of your company to anyone who needs a book re-bound.
I may put this info up on my business’ Facebook. I always believe in sharing “good news & information”.
Again thanks.

Hi Laura … I got the music book back today and am really impressed. It feels solid and like it won’t mind being used another century or so. The book is just over 100 years old, and roughly 1000 pages, so presented a challenge as it tried to fall apart. It’s nearly impossible to get piano music like this anymore.
Thank you to Grimm’s for an excellent job. Leila

Laura,
I would like to express my gratitude with your companies services. The product we received was everything we imagined and more. The leather was so soft and beautiful. The lettering looked perfect on the cover and spine. The printing was amazing as well. My boss and I are absolutely thrilled with the product you all provided us. I’m sure <recipient name kept confidential> will love it as well.

Over the Thanksgiving holiday I came upon my 98 1/2 yr old Mother’s Holy Bible. Which was handed down to her from her mother so it’s very precious. It looked very tattered. When I picked it up the cover dropped flakes all over the carpet, yet the inside pages were in great shape, as well as the beautiful illustrations.
After doing research on professional book binders I decided to put my trust in Grimm Book Bindery, and I am glad I did. My mother’s Bible now has a top quality black leather cover, with gold printing on the side. It is beautiful and I know my mother will be very pleased. Grimm Book Bindery took excellent care and I am proud to present it to my mother. All of the employees were very courteous and helpful, and made sure I understood each step of the process. Thank you Grimm Book Bindery and thank you to each employee who was involved in the transformation taking good care of something that has much emotional significance to my extended family.

To the Management at Grimm Book Bindery:
I wanted to let you know how much I appreciated the help and guidance I received from Laura while placing my book order with your company. I was quite ignorant of binding techniques and options, and she was instrumental in getting me a finished book with which I am very pleased.
This book is a collection of adventures and memoirs that I wanted to share with my grandson. As such, it means a lot to me. I could not have done this without her help.
Thanks again to Laura, and all the staff and management at Grimm who helped out on this project.

For any customer who has the opportunity at some point in his or her life to work with you and your team will come to experience what we use to call the “Midas Touch”……!
So I just want to say “Thank you” to all of the staff of Grimm Book Bindery for the outstanding work all of you have demonstrated for the making of my items. It is and will be without question the cherry on top for my next interview……….

I can not say enough how very pleased I am with the work that went into putting my book back together. This book means a lot to me. I had it as a child; of course not knowing how to read when I scribbled in it. And I have had it all this time, not knowing it was made into a movie until I was in my 30s. I have read it several times and started reading it again last night when I received it. Each time the movie comes on, I watch it. I will always treasure it and your crew has helped me to keep it for an even longer time to enjoy. Please thank everyone for me. I am so very grateful!
Sincerely,

Hi Laura & Tracy,
It’s funny. The phrase “I couldn’t be happier” was going to be my comment (well, I guess it still is). I went and looked at the other testimonials and apparently those aren’t only from me. Those words say it all.
Even before I got the book, both of you made the experience so pleasant.
And both of you made sure that I was getting the best product.
I love it and I know my mother will love it also.
I’d also like to compliment the rest of the staff – the buyers of the materials, the web designer and those that “built” the book. What makes the book so special is the options of materials and design that was available to me. Also, your website isn’t like others – it is far better. Your design-your-book capability is awesome. And, of course, all this would be for nought if the book “builders” didn’t do their job correctly. Just holding the book and flipping through the pages makes me smile.
Please give my compliments and whole-hearted appreciation to all of those involved.
Thank You!!!
Rob

The book has landed! I couldn’t be happier with the final product or the experience. It’s oftentimes daunting to look for a specialty item online. Chances are you’ve never dealt with the seller and are unsure what to expect. That was absolutely the case for me here. However, my worries were unfounded. Grimm took great care of my order from start to finish. The customer service exceeded my expectations multiple times. The shipping was quicker than I anticipated it would be. And the book itself looks phenomenal. It will undoubtedly be a stand-out Christmas gift this holiday, you know, the one that gets remembered long after it’s been opened. Thank you for all you did to make this experience a solid one. Not only will I use you again, but I would not hesitate to recommend you to others.
Thanks,

Every interaction I have had with your company has exceeded my expectations. Joneva spent so much of her time just helping me decide on a cover for my book order and explaining what each one would feel and look like. This gift was really important to me, and even though it wasn’t a huge order, I was treated like it was important and that meant a lot to me. You seem to be passionate about what you sell and that makes all the difference.
I have several friends and family members that write books or write as a hobby so I will be making recommendations to them in the future! You guys are the best!

I would like to thank you and the entire Grimm Book Bindery Company for the great job done in repairing our Car and Locomotive Cyclopedias.
The editions you repaired have long been out of print. Obtaining good used copies through eBay or Amazon requires a high purchase price. Because railroad hardware and designs tend to last a long time, we occasionally have a need to reference these books. Your repair work provided an economical method to allow continued use of these books.
