Great Books?
 
Does anyone know who sells or publishes any of the 'Great Books of Western Civilisation' in the following format: Hardcover, Large Print, collectible or 'looks collectible', decently made (won't fall apart before done reading, etc)?

All the Classics in hardback seem to be rather small, with small print (causes eye strain).

I'm trying to figure out if any company has made reprints of the classics in a large print, nice hardback format (also trying not to break the bank here...)

Any recommendations or input would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, I'm avoiding Amazon and ebay at the moment. I'd like to find the actual source, not just a re-reseller.

I've tried AbeBooks (most of their copies seem to be small volumes, small print), Booksamillion, CBD (they usually don't have what I'm looking for anyway), Overstock, Penguin, and Harvard. I haven't tried Oxford yet but I imagine they don't do the big 'home library large print' editions...

???

This may not be what you are looking for but here is a resource for GA Henty books.

Here is a list I found of reprints.
