I am proud to own a copy of the full and unabridged (as they say) Scottish National Dictionary as my father subbed to it as it was being compiled and received in in quarto. Which in essence is uncut four pages to a sheet. However being a printer he had it run up as books and properly bound so that on opening they stay open where you want them to. A master piece of binding and a joy to own: and more volumes than you might think...
