Key product features of the Large Custom Softcover book style include:

• The option to use any photo, layout, caption and background for the cover design;
• A flexible, glossy cover made from durable 100-lb cover stock;
• Interior pages made of 100-lb acid-free, archival-quality text paper stock - similar to what would be found in a fine art or coffee table book.

"Our customers asked for a book style option that is more casual than the Custom Hardcover photo book at a price point that is conducive to large quantity orders," said Howard Field, co-CEO of Picaboo.  "The Custom Softcover option is the perfect choice for team sports books, wedding party favors, travel companion gifts and philanthropy donor-appreciation books."

The Large Custom Softcover books start at $24.99 for a 20-page book, and more pages can be added for an extra cost.  With book styles ranging from the entry level $9.99 Classic Softcover books to the luxurious full-grain leather Flush Mount albums starting at $349.99, Picaboo has the broadest range of quality photo book styles available for sale direct to consumers.
