I have not heard any recent updates on possible book release dates? Even tentative or hopeful release
date(s) would be welcome. Thanks, Patrick.

The boy that cried wolf.... March 3 2002, 7:23 PM

Wade,

I feel like the boy that cried wolf...a couple of times.

The book is done, I have selected the printer. The only thing left is the layout (that is my lame old story I have been using since the summer!) I could have had it done almost a year ago if I wanted to just lay it out on my own and print it. Unfortunately I am a perfectionist and figured since the issue is almot 100 years old; you could all wait another year to get it right.

The creative guy from our firm who lays out all our catalogs is doing the work. He is currently putting our April sports sale to rest and by mid April the May Americana sale will be completed. After that he has a window of opportunity. Assuming at least a few more delays looks like a release for the National in Chicago will be the worst case scenario.

Thanks for the interest.

Regards,
Doug

I have not heard anything from Doug that would change this timeline. I am anxious for everyone to get this book and hope it will be at the Mastro booth at the National.
