Artist Edition #1: "Living Dangerously"

Thursday, July 16, 2009 - 12:13 AM

I've started crack-a-lackin' on drawing all 300 Artist Edition copies of "Living Dangerously (With Saturated Fats). They'll all be going on sale in the second week of August. But! In the meantime, check out the artistic flourish that I ended up giving to the #1 book!

(...and here's another little Arthur on the facing page...)

It came out so awesome that I want to separate it out from the rest of the bunch (where it would go out completely randomly to whoever hit the Paypal button the fastest). So! For the true Uber-Sheldonista out there who wants the best of the Artist Editions, here's your chance to have it on your bookshelf! Shipping for this book is FREE in the U.S., and we'll start the ball rolling at 1 penny for it....'cause I'd rather let you guys decide what it's worth.

Hot diggity dang. You sure know how to make a guy feel poor! When I just checked, bidding was at $112. I can only imagine it will go up dramatically in the next 6 days. I guess I'm just not uber enough, because there's no way I can swing a bid on that puppy (and lizard and old dude and fishes and young boys and duck).

Maybe if you ever decide to come to the Minneapolis area, I can score a pity-high-five. (Seriously, are there any cons in the midwest?)

Aww, special artist editions on ebay? :( I hope you don't plan on doing the same thing for the last book, cause the chance to get an extra special copy is an added incentive to buy an artist's edition, and if that's gone... well, not much point buying one anymore for that price.

Great googly moogly! We're up to $250.

Any idea when the regular orders for the Artist's Editions will start up?

@ splinky: The Artist Editions will go up for sale just before or just after the book launch party on August 9th...and the regular books with go up shortly after.

@shalaina: Not to worry! I think we'll do lucky number 300 by luck-of-the-draw. :)

@relishgargler: You'll always be uber enough!
