$1k would be a instant buy.

for $2k... I’m going to snooze on it

 

1K was the price for 'Life in Photographs' 8 years ago, so i'm not surprised at the increase. I'm not a fan of the print selections for the Art Editions so will pass.

 

Up on the site:

Linda McCartney. The Polaroid Diaries (Limited Edition) - TASCHEN Books

Linda McCartney. The Polaroid Diaries. Art Edition No. 1–62 ‘Location unknown, 1970s’ (Limited Edition) - TASCHEN Books

Linda McCartney. The Polaroid Diaries. Art Edition No. 63–124 ‘Sussex, England, 1980s’ (Limited Edition) - TASCHEN Books

 

They do these limited signed editions then later they do a smaller regular priced edition.

I bought one of their Helmut Newton’s Sumo editions from amazon around 1999 or so. It included a Phillipe Starke designed floor stand It was a $2000 book and Amazon had it for $600.

In 2010 I sold it for $7000.

Some limited signed photo books do increase in value.

 

Except for this one, which I don't think has been reissued as a regular edition?

Kishin Shinoyama Photography Book. John Lennon & Yoko Ono. Double Fantasy.*

 

Hopes lots of Beatles images.

 

Trying to decide if this is worth $2,000. I love Paul, and I love Linda, but I can’t help think I can buy the standard book and an authenticated signature cheaper elsewhere.

 

Linda McCartney's Heart of the Country

 

very nice but I would love "The Beatles through Linda's lens" book from Taschen instead.

 

Got my signed limited edition in the mail today. I am blown away at the quality of this compared to something from Genesis. Not only does it come packaged pristinely, it also comes with a set of white gloves and a bombproof acrylic slipcase. I was on the fence whether I should buy this or just get an autograph off of ebay that looks reputable. But, the price differential is definitely made up for with the quality of the release.

Now I need to figure out a way to copy the signature page so I can hang it for display.

 

Just received mine within the past few days.
I’m very very very very very happy with it!
This is a once-in-a-lifetime purchase for me, and besides unfortunately I may never get to meet the man himself.

 

What are you going to do with yours?

 

I ended up taking some photos which I have on my iPad. Right now are using those and I hope to eventually get some sort of picture printed off on a glossy page, specifically with Paul’s autograph.

Happy New Year!

 

Good luck with copying the signature page, and hang it up for display. It’s a wonderful piece.

 

Also your praise is quite high given I’m sure Genesis Publications are no slouches from what I see on their website.

 

Still waiting for mine.
