Default Serialization Book

Anyone else having the problem with the pages falling out ? About the first 30 pages have separated from the spine.

Mine is in at least 450 pieces, but I think I know the reason.

Your's is so dog eared, I believe you have looked up every gun that was made, and some that weren't.

not only my serial number book but my Parker Story books are doing the same thing.. I'm disappointed to have such high quality ( and expensive ) books look like they were bought at a rummage sale...

My copies of War and Peace and The Holy Bible are in pretty good shape compared to TPS and the Serialization Book. I wonder if it has something to do with degree of use?

My leather bound, slip-cased edition of The Parker Story sees a lot of use but because it is part of my somewhat valuable sporting library it gets handled with care and is always put back in the slip-case and put back in its place on the shelf.

My original started falling apart. I gave it to a friend and ordered a new one then added a reinforcement using goat skin leather and contact cement. Its been about 18 months and seems to be holding together.
Not pretty but I am a little hard on some of the books I use regularly.
