We have something like that. Someone took the Player's Handbook, Dungeons Master's Guide and Unearthed and had them bound together in a single hardback volume titled "PUD".


Available now from Die Cast Games: Night of the Black Swords by Allen Hammack (Author of C2-The Ghost Tower of Inverness) with artwork by Jeff Easley and Diesel.

The one in the picture was Jolly Blackburn's.  From his post, "My old AD&D books bound as one huge volume back from the day.  I put this up in a charity auction a few years ago."

I have a "reskinned" Rules Cyclopedia I bought off of Ebay a few years back, literally reskinned in black rabbit fur and red suede. Apparently red candle wax or something got spilled on it and stained some pages so the previous owner covered it with the fur ans sued and glued a number of pewter occult and fantasy charms tot he exterior. Not quite the massive tome of goodness shown above but pretty cool in it's own way.

I've seen a third print woodgrain set professionally bound (minus the box obviously), which was done back in 78 or 79. I think it had some or all of the supplements included with it.
