The construction of MIR titles reminds me a lot of older Springer GTM and Grundlehren der Mathematischen Wissenschaften series titles. I have a number of Springer titles I've picked up over the years and the older printings were beautifully typeset and bound with very good paper. I try to find the older printings of Springer books when I can when chasing down a copy for my personal library.
