The majority of the books in the collectible classics series are covered in ‘bonded’ leather. Visit this page on the Barnes & Noble website to see everything they currently have available in the series. In 2005, they released a highly decorative edition of The Complete Works of Lewis Carrolland its popularity sparked the beginning of the ‘Collectible Classics’ as the series is better known today. The contents were mostly omnibus editions (with several titles by the same author in a single book) and the bindings were very traditional, with dark (bonded) leather covers featuring plain gold text and simple foiled borders, along with raised bands on the spine, gilt page edges, decorative endpapers, and a sewn-in ribbon bookmark. Barnes and Noble brought out their original series of collectible ‘exclusive’ leather-bound classic editions in 1992.
