If he likes to read, send a copy of "The Law" by Frederick Bastiat.

It fits well into mel's guidlines.

Hmmm.... As one poster pointed out, giving a gift to a client is a bit tricky--too expensive a gift might make him think that you're making too much from him... The point is to show appreciation for one's continued business but it could backfire.

Perhaps maybe giving a gift is not a good option -- what about taking him out to play golf, invite him to an event, etc...?

Just revisiting this thread with another opinion...

+1. You mentioned he enjoys an occasional drink. A well-selected fine liquor (that he enjoys) IMHO is another option. Not too $$$ and shows a bit of thought regarding his likes.

So, let me get this straight alex. You're suggesting that after the client cuts himself with the sword set, he applies the bacon band-aids, then uses the i-phone to make a reservation at the BMW Driving School, then shows up in the neglig?? Must be one hell of an interesting client.
