I’M NOT SURE we could have ever found a more capable, creative, easy-to-work-with group to design, write, and produce our corporate story. We also couldn’t find one that was farther away. As a Florida real estate development company, it should have been easy to find a local writing team to create our 40th Anniversary Book. But once we spoke with Larry and Sylvia in British Columbia (Canada), we were sold on their approach, their sensibilities, and their evident mastery of building a beautiful storybook out of four decades of snippets from our corporate (and sometimes personal) lives. They also assured us that the 3,400 miles between our offices should not have any effect on the fluidity of the project. They were so right.
The process of orchestrating the various stories, players, and photos—and the ultimate production of the book—required tremendous patience, delicate people skills, and a film director’s vision of the end product. Larry and Sylvia have all these talents in spades, and are two of the most pleasant people you will ever meet.
We truly enjoyed the experience, and are glad to welcome these new Canadian friends into our family. But most important, we love the end product. The response to the book has been fantastic. Several folks have told me that they opened it simply to peruse it, yet couldn’t put it down and read every page.
We couldn’t have made a better choice, and highly recommend Thumbprint Books for any similar project. — Steven Shapiro, Shapiro|Pertnoy Companies
THANK YOU FOR helping me capture my father’s story for his grandkids and great-grandkids. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for many years. You guided us effectively through the process. Your interview with my father (combined with the stories his wife had already written down), interwoven with many photos from his life, has formed a great retrospective of Dad’s story. The custom, gold-leafed slipcases you designed and created are beautiful and make each copy that much more special. You’ve created a book that I’m extremely proud to have for family and friends. — R. McDonald

IT IS A VERY special experience to go through the process of putting together a memory book. In our case we made a collection of the poems that my husband and I have written to each other over the 40 years we have been with each other, and selected some lovely photos to accompany them. It was such a pleasure to work with Larry and Sylvia who, apart from being just very dear people, are capable artists with serious computer expertise. They worked hard to create the book we wanted, surprising us with some lovely visual effects and some fun juxtapositions, while at the same time keeping true to what we envisioned. They involved us in the process which meant a number of visits, and an evolution of the project that was really delightful to participate in. Today it is so nice to have the volume in our hands and look through those old memories now enriched with these new memories of making them into a book. — K. Cowper
I SPENT ABOUT fifteen years working on my autobiography...a legacy that I wanted to create for family and close friends. Once I finally had the draft completed, and a box of photographs and documents assembled to illustrate it, I needed someone to help pull all the pieces together and get it published. Luckily I discovered Thumbprint Books and called Larry and Sylvia to take on this daunting task. They did a fantastic job of editing it, coordinating all the photos and documents (touch-up, placement, etc) and assembling it professionally. They even created special hand-made “pockets" in the book for the family trees, and prepared an index of names at the end of the book. They also updated the family trees for me. They were extremely accommodating and easy to work with. I’m so pleased with the final product and don’t know how I could have done it without them. The service they provide is very specialized, and extremely professional. The feedback from family and friends on the published book has been overwhelming. Everyone is so impressed! Thank you so much, Larry and Sylvia! — G. Nielsen

THANKS FOR THE GREAT JOB you did on our 50th anniversary book. It looks fantastic, and will ensure that our history is not forgotten as the company continues to grow and move forward.” — Derek Fettback, Western Pacific Enterprises
FOR A NUMBER of years friends asked us, “When are you going to write the story of your interesting lives?” Also, we wanted to provide for our families a record of God’s enabling, but kept putting it off until Larry and Sylvia spent five days with us, interviewing and recording our story, along with scanning hundreds of photos. Then they took the story and formatted an amazing, colorful coffee-table book that really impresses people who read it. Thanks, Larry and Sylvia, for so capably bringing about what we had been wanting to do. — B. & B. Adams

DOING A BOOK was a totally new experience for me, and the book’s design presented a daunting and stressful challenge. But Larry and Sylvia Adams, the talented and friendly couple who form Thumbprint Books, put me at ease with their expertise and their helpful approach. Larry’s design sense and proficiency with computer graphics meant that several layouts could be considered in a short time, and the best option chosen. I feel fortunate to have had them and their creative services readily available for this endeavour. — D. Hamilton
IT WAS A COMPLETE pleasure working with Sylvia and Larry Adams of Thumbprint Books. They had accepted the challenge of creating a book that captured the spirit of Maggie Cumming’s life story. The Bowen Island Community Foundation had received a major bequest from her, and the book was a way of honouring her life, her love of Bowen, and her generosity. Sylvia and Larry were personable, enthusiastic, professional, detailed, creative, and meticulous. Their knowledge of the production process and the costs were immense attributes to the success of the project. I hope another opportunity comes along for me to work with them. — Joyce Ganong, Past Chair of Bowen Island Community Foundation

AS AN AUTHOR of dozens of books, I found collaborating with Thumbprint Books to be very pleasant. It is an excellent company. From concept, to editing, to design, to dealing with the minutiae of proofs and delivery, the team is very professional and makes the publishing process seamless and rewarding. — David Finch, Historian
I WAS LOOKING to make a coffee-table book to record the variety of birds I have carved. I asked an artistic photographer to photograph them. I then turned the photographs over to Thumbprint Books, who developed an imaginative and creative presentation of them, which exceeded my expectations and which draws glowing comments from all to whom I show it. I appreciated working with Larry throughout the process. I highly recommend Thumbprint Books. — B. Miller
