Rolling Stones Pleased to Meet You Limited Edition Book

Your are bidding on a stunning RARE & Ltd. Ed. oversized art quality hardcover collectors book.  It comes in its own separate Box.  Other than when taking the pictures you see here, this mint condition item has only been opened one other time when it was received to verify the contents.  This release is now out of print: 'Pleased To Meet You' by Michael Putland covers the Rolling Stones in the 1970's; starting with the US Tour of 1972. The book is 228pg. with over 400 incredible rare and mostly otherwise unpublished photos.  The edition was strictly limited to only 1,750 numbered copies, each individually signed by Michael Putland with a foreword by Mick Taylor; this copy is number #460. The book is produced to the highest standards of printing and binding, and features the innovative design concepts and materials for which Genesis Publications has become famous. The Book itself measures 14+1/2 x 10in. The outer Box is 15x10 + 1/2in. The book is housed in a silk-screened box covered in orange buckram.  The photograph of Keith Richards, is revealed when the circular shutter on the box is opened.

The book is master-printed onto acid-free 200gsm matte art paper in fine-screen black and white reproduction, with 32 pages of full color and image-varnishing throughout. These rare & candid Stones photographs are described with an insightful text from Michael Putland, who personally oversaw every stage of the book's production. An absolutely gorgeous gift for any Stones fan/collector!

Because of the BIG size & HEAVY weight of the book, it will be shipped FREE, insured UPS within the U.S.  For the peace of mind & protection of BOTH parties, Buyer & Seller, I will add 'Signature Confirmation' (free of charge); you MUST sign for the package.   It will be shipped in the same multi layer cardboard container that it arrived in when I received it new from Genesis publications in England.

I am willing to ship Overseas, BUT, overseas buyers MUST be aware: because of the BIG size & HEAVY weight, there will probably be a substantial postage charge ($50-$75) for the AIR-mail of this Book.

I am selling this and other items in my large Rolling Stones collection due to my recent “addiction” to Remote Control Helicopters.   Therefore I am starting the item out with a very low reserve price that matches what I paid for the book from Genesis in 1999 (190 gpb) plus what I estimate shipping US shipping will be.

 Note:  When packing the item back up I noticed one corner of the black box back (where the book set in) seems split.   I am sure it came this way as I am very carefull (even use photographic gloves) when handeling my books.
