This is the second Shorter Christian Prayer book I have purchased and paid extra (expensive) for personalized lettering of name and name of church on the cover. The lettering is a gold leaf type printing. If I was employed to add the custom lettering I would have not allowed the book to be shipped to the customer. Just out of simple respect to the customer. The lettering was done so poorly as if the person doing it just didn’t care. I was hoping with the second purchase that improvements would have been made. My mistake. The texture of the book alone I think has something to do with it. It’s a textured surface which I believe makes it impossible to personalize. That being said the option to personalize should be removed. Only smooth surface books should be allowed to be customized. It’s frustrating because of the amount of money I paid for it one would think they would do a good job or simply say it can’t be done and refund the portion of money for the personalization.
Not adding a photo as it has my personal info on it.
