Chris, as soon as we get the books, we'll put pictures up. I actually spend three hours last night printing out address labels, putting boxes together, tearing off two sheets per book of bubble wrap, and generally getting everything to go, so when we get the books, they'll be shipping within a day. I can't wait to see them myself!!!

I can't wait to see them myself!!! Only 2 sheets of bubble wrap? Really excited about this! You and Tom have to live up to your cool books you have been doing (i'm glad you don't do dust wrappers). Just a genral question. How much input did Insideous Publications have on this one or is it your's and Tom's idea for the style of the book?

Just a genral question. How much input did Insideous Publications have on this one or is it your's and Tom's idea for the style of the book? Two sheets of bubble wrap AND biodegradable peanuts. You should see our living room, there are boxes stacked up about four feet high just ready to get books stuck in them and sealed up... I'll let Tom and Chris address the book style question...I know they worked together on this one quiet extensively throwing ideas back and forth...

No chance of me being a publisher, my kids would distroy the boxes! ;D

Okay, here are some quick and uber-crappy (sorry!) pics of the books. It was a bit difficult finding a clean surface to lay them out on, as the downstairs has been turned into packing central. For the theme of this one, we went with a woodsy vibe. The book is bound in green leather and the box is dressed up in a faux wood material. The stamping (the large stamp on the front of the book and the human/wolf footprints on the box) were done in white to go along with the snow later in the book. The books. Slipcase and cover stamping. The front cover. One of four full-color illustrations. Custom linen endsheets

Wow... I mean WOW! Going back quite a few months I have said SSP was rising to the top of the publishing world, well this confirms it! A smashing looking book and great value for money. Congrats to all involved with it, i'm very happy indeed.
