"Beehive Books puts together volumes that would make any shelf of any collector richer and more beautiful."
"My god, these will make your shelves look amazing. I worship Beehive Books!"
"I cleared a shelf for the new additions and they look fantastic - What beautiful artifacts! Tlike extravagant posing dandies - next to various Folio editions in slipcases!"
"You do a marvelous job. Your unwieldiness is precisely your appeal. At first I was afraid to open this book because it looks like the Ark of the Covenant and I was afraid my face would melt. But then I remembered it only melts Nazi faces and wow, it is a triumph."
"These books are extraordinary... each one more beautiful than the last. I love adding them to my shelves. I love you so much, you're a good boy!"
"Holy heck, this new edition of A Voyage to Arcturus is incredible. You all make extraordinary books."
"Beehive has a well-deserved rep for making absolutely beautiful new editions of great public domain books, each with new illustrations and intros, all in matching livery to make a bookshelf look classy af. The Beehive editions show us how a rich public domain can be the soil from which new and inspiring creative works sprout."
"The American equivalent to the Folio Society, with its own unique voice and vision."
"Beehive Books specializes in high-end visual literature: art books, comics, illuminated texts, and hybrid formats, ranging from forgotten masters to avant-garde contemporary creators. The luxurious hardcover volumes feel like works of art in themselves. No expense was spared, using the best possible paper, reproduction and binding."
"Beehive's Pinocchio deserves to be the talk of the town. Everything about it works. Mike Mignola's art is distinctive and suits the story, along with the font and page layout choices. Getting Lemony Snicket to provide annotations is an inspired creative choice. I'm a collector of books from Suntup, Centipede, and others who do high end work. Beehive books sit proudly on shelves next to books that cost hundreds of dollars more."
"The hottest publication at recent comics conventions wasn’t a graphic novel or a mini-comic but a good old-fashioned tabloid-size newspaper publication—a throwback to the underground presses of decades past. Its immersive scale, punchy color, and bold graphics make it a potent example of the impact that printed matter can have."
"Beehive Books is a Philadelphia-based publisher and collective that creates lavishly illustrated books among a host of other artistic endeavors. Josh O'Neill is one of the cofounders, in charge of the publishing aspects of Beehive, and one of the most passionate and inspiring book creators creating small press books today."
