Not sure just how much demand there is for this information generally but a few of us group members have the beginnings of a spreadsheet for collecting it.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lywSZvPbqLkaS506hNRXrVwWRxNzPKN2C6il83PD...
Plenty of gaps remain and I'd like to ask for assistance in filling them.
Please feel free to reply here with any additions or, if you'd like to edit directly, you can PM your email address.

>1 adriano77: I never felt strongly about the choice for C&C offset to be added to the mix of printers used. I was actually interested to see the printing quality and style of a printer from a local steeped in book printing history. Then they botched the quality control of The Book Of The New Sun. This was entirely preventable and didn’t look good here and on social media. The distance between London and Hong Kong in times of Corona led to the floor falling out. So, I support this idea and have contributed where I could so devotees can make an informed decision. I ask as well to please help fill in the gaps and improve our collective knowledge.

Thank you for the work on the spreadsheet.
Based on the data you currently have (why am I doing this on a Friday evening!):
2017: 7 Chinese, of 49 total = ~14%
2018: 13 of 51 = ~25%
2019: 4 of 25 = 16%
2020: 6 of 19 = ~32%
2021: 6 of 17 = ~35%
Read into that whatever you wish.

To anybody who is interested, I have done some very basic analysis of the data we have gathered so far, and created a few simple charts/graphs to display it (visible in a second tab within the spreadsheet labelled Graphs). It's all quite rough at the moment, will need to refine a lot of it to make it self updating etc, and I have a few other ideas of ways to look at the information which I will be having a go at over the next few weeks, work dependent.
If anybody has any ideas of their own which they would like to see analyzed/represented on a graph, feel free to PM me and I will add them to my to do list of ideas - please don't reply on this thread with ideas as it will make it harder when going through it to sift through information which needs adding to the spreadsheet (I'm aware I am doing just that but I figured 1 post shouldn't hurt).
Lastly I may create a separate topic to go over some of the things I think are interesting in the data, depending on others' interest levels, and how busy I am at work.

There are lots of book which we have as being bound at Memminger in Germany, and a few as being bound at Josef Spinner. As far as I can tell based on the few books I own, books tend to be printed at Memminger then bound at Josef Spinner. Is anybody able to confirm this? I don't want to make updates based on an assumption.
>1 adriano77: Do you think it is worth adding an extra column to reflect this, or better to edit the existing column to show only printer or binder (whichever is thought to be more important to people?)

Thanks. Could you tell me the printer of Odyssey?
Also, I presume it's C&C Offset for Little Women and Tale of Two Cities but just want to double-check.
>32 DanGoddard98:
From what I've inputted myself, Memminger typically handles both jobs (or are at least the sole company listed), and there aren't that many instances of partnering with Spinner for binding. Personally, I think the column is okay as it is.

>33 adriano77: That's perfect, it must just be coincidence that the few I have used both.
When I've added information to a few I've only put in Josef Spinner, as I think where the books are bound is probably of more interest to people than where they are printed (harder for there to be as much variance in print quality imo), but I can update those to include both if needed.

>35 DanGoddard98: just one voice, but I notice more variation in print quality, and care more about printer than binder, most of the time. Unless we are talking about binding at the Zaehnsdorf or Sangorski-Sutcliffe levels, which only occurs sometimes for Folio with limited editions.

39abysswalker
>38 DanGoddard98: I do keep separate columns for both printer and binder in my private catalog (and marbler, and designer, and translator, and …); no objection from me to adding more data! I suspect it can become overwhelming for some people though, and for a collaborative effort it can help to ensure that the perfect does not become the enemy of the good. That said, I don’t think we are anywhere near to that particular horizon. Thanks for adding the additional info.

Interestingly enough, the latest Bond novel is done in Germany, as opposed to the rest of the series being from Italy. Curious if this is a mistake. Also noteworthy, the latest Shackleton reprint's been done in UK somewhere, as opposed to Spain for the previous.
