I know most people on here don't collect Easton Press (My only two exceptions with regards to restricting myself to collecting UK books are the Easton Press Tolkien books and the HM History of Middle Earth)..
Anyway, the quality is very good. Only negative comment is that the manuscript page is monochrome (the HarperCollins editions are colour). Otherwise, is typical Easton press with the Moire Silk endpapers, ribbon marker, stitched binding, 22kt gold stamping and gilt page edges, Acid Neutral paper, etc.
Cost was $98 (US), including international shipping. My guess is this is the only leatherbound version of this book we are likely to see, so might be of interest to those who typically wouldn't buy an EP volume. Certainly more for your money than the not-much-cheaper HarperCollins deluxe slipcased edition.
