The "Book Decor" Collection Development Plan

(Tip o' the hat to boingboing)

My favorite quote from the Home Decor sales pitch: Many people feel that it's silly to purchase books for pure decorative value. While we certainly understand this, we also savor the opportunity to change the mind of such individuals! Our books are so beautiful on the outside that their interior ceases to be important. [My emphasis.] What's more, they are available for purchase by the foot as well as the yard. In other words, no more spending hours in used bookstores looking for space fillers. At Book Décor, this process takes a matter of seconds!

Pricing and ordering information found here. Select from a variety of styles, including Jewel Tone, Designer Mix, Zen Collection, and Less Than Perfect. (I wish I were making this up.)
