I bet that more people than just I would pay $50 for a nice
production of 150 pages.  If you're making them by hand, one
at a time, that's probably not worth it.  But if you can
actually have them printed and bound, it might well be.

It still sounds like a heck of a lot of work and a huge investment of
time (and possibly money), and I don't have much of either.  But if it's
worth it, I might consider it.

I wonder how many you'd have to print to be worth it?  I also
wonder, what kinds of binding are available to the small print run?

Can someone who has experience in publishing share their knowledge about
printing costs and all that stuff?
