This was a limited edition book with 2, 500 hand signed and numbered copies, each signed by Ringo Starr. THIS ONE IS NUMBER 1289. This charming limited edition features the reproduction of 53 postcards sent by George Harrison, John Lennon and Paul McCartney to Ringo. The superb facsimile reproductions of the cards, complete with the occasional drawing, depict both the spontaneous wit and art of The Beatles. The messages sent with love and kindness give insight into the unique bond which existed between the members of the Fab Four. The reproduction of the postcards is supplemented with a revealing and humorous text from Ringo explaining the meaning behind the postcards and documenting the corresponding moments of his life. This is quite simply a "must-have' item for anyone interested in the story of The Beatles' phenomenon. There is more handwork involved in the craft bookbinding of Postcards From The Boys than with any previous Genesis title. The two sides of each facsimile postcard are carefully pasted into every book to the extent that there are 108 individual pieces of paper pasted into every single copy. The text is printed in silver onto heavyweight black paper to create a true postcard album. The binding is in light brown Nubuk, a new material from Winter and Company. Each book is housed in an aluminum faced postbox style solander box and personally autographed by Ringo, making it the ultimate original collectors' item. Each subscriber to Postcards From The Boys will delight in owning an album with remarkable facsimile postcards individually pasted onto the pages - postcards from George, John and Paul so accurately reproduced that each copy in the limited edition will have the appearance of an original photo album. When your unique copy arrives you will find a stamp glued onto the title page. This stamp will have been selected from the hundreds of stamps from around the world, specially purchased for this edition. Therefore no two copies of Postcards From The Boys will be the same. Each copy in the limited edition has been personally autographed by Ringo. CHECK OUT THESE "RINGO" QUOTES FROM THE BOOK!...."Once Harry Nilsson and I ended up in Austria looking for Johann Strauss! We met Robert Altman instead and finished up in a hotel in Denmark and I believe we had a heated discussion halfway through dinner - him, Harry and I - and the end result was I ended up in Greece with somebody, in Athens!" Ringo Starr "One Bonfire Night that we had at my place, John and I decided to show our kids (they must have been two and three) some fireworks. We went and bought all these fizzy ones. We'd smoked a lot of herbalized stuff so we didn't want anything really loud. We were doing this whole set up and sitting around, relaxing a little and we went outside to give the babies this big show and everything we bought just exploded! Exploded! What the kids must have thought, I don't know because the grown-ups were going 'Ow! Ow! Aaaagh!' We were so shocked we had to go back inside. And that's what makes our children what they are today". Ringo Starr "There was so much good music in Rishikesh. A lot of the guys wrote some good songs there - if nothing else, that was well worth it. In many ways it was also our first experience of being left alone, although the press caught up with us and photographed us leaving. But we did have plenty of time on our own. The bathroom was full of scorpions - these are just flash memories - you had to make a lot of noise before you went in. And that was that. I'm still glad I went and feel so blessed I met the Maharishi - he gave me a mantra that no-one can take away and I still use it." Ringo Starr Check out the picture(s) and enjoy!
