Announcing a joint venture from synaesthesia press, LeadGraffiti and Bottle of Smoke Press.

There are 26 lettered hardbound copies. All lettered copies are signed by Nick Hornby on his essay and by Bruce Springsteen on the broadside. $225 each, shipping included.
There are 200 numbered copies in wraps. All numbered copies in wraps are signed by Nick Hornby on his essay. $60 each, shipping included.

All proceeds from the sale of this book, as well as the materials, design and production costs, have been donated to TreeHouse, a school in London dedicated to educating children with autism. Treehouse is Ambitious about Autism. Find out more at treehouse.org.uk.
We are not accepting payment for these yet and all sales (not just the profits, but 100% of the sales price) will be donated to charity. We are still in the process of setting up a way to have buyers pay the charity directly. Please e-mail me at bill@bospress.net if you want to buy a copy and we'll hold one for you. We have announced this to just a few people and so we only have 8 hardcovers left to sell. Mark & I wanted to give the members on this forum a chance at this release, if interested. The paperback edition, Signed by Hornby, will sell out very fast, but the hardcover edition, signed by Hornby & Springsteen will sell out well in advance of the release date.
We are about two weeks from being able to ship this book.
Thanks,
Bill
