<p>For what you're describing, Queenberry or Jorgensen.</p>

<p>I was thinking matted album, beautiful Italian leather... The album itself a masterpiece. No picture cover, possibly simple and elegant emboss or letterpress.<br /> Thank you John & Neil. I'll check out these sites.</p>

<p>Leather Craftsmen 800 reversible matted album. The product is also available as a premium upgrade. Ask them about that. Don't forget the slipcase.</p>

<p>I have to agree with David Wegwart. I've sold a few White Glove albums. $1000 or more for an album is common.</p>

<p>Mary, what is the price range of the album company?</p>

[think27]

<p>Bob - About $195 to $265 for a cover for a 13" square and then add around $5.00 per leaf and then around $3,00-$4.00 per mat depending on whether you get a single, beveled or double or two tone mat. These are Classic albums with quite a selection of cover materials and colors. They also do Digital Storybook albums but I've never seen them. I assume they are top quality though because of the rest of their products. I have 2005 prices on those so they are not up to date. Email me if you want me to look up those prices for you.</p>

<p>Thank you Mary! I will check them out and get a sample album made.</p>
