    Maybe I am looking too much into it but he says Oakland "dates". Either he had two posters for two shows, 1 poster for two shows or he meant date not dates. He did say poster and not posters so I bet it was just one poster for one show.

    2,000 posters! 
    I ordered the book. Maybe he should have slipped in one of those 2000 posters with each order ;)


    Imagine he did, and they were all folded?

    Great! I did too- I actually had no interest the first time until I saw some of it online.  Looks fantastic.

    Definitely bought one yesterday.  I didn't buy it the first time because they weren't signed and was thinking my other Sperry books are signed, but I'm not missing out on this thing.

    The other two books are each 136 pages.  This thing is close to 750 pages, and does that say it is 12 pounds?

    Is anyone interested in signed and numbered first editions of the last two sperry books helkion and chthoneon?

    I bought it a few months ago for the first pressing and it is definitely huge. But really nice. There are so many pages of photos.

    That's why I had to get it. I'm ok with huge.  I think it has everything he's done, and if not, pretty close.

    I got the first pressing of this book. If any of you are on the fence about getting it, go for it. It’s beautiful. But HUGE. 
  • There’s been another release of these second printings today.

    EU only set shipping from France and US only sets too.
