I might be able to post some photos of the book itself in the near future. We generally prefer to wait until we have the complete production for that, but I'll see how much progress the box maker has made in his next update!

Oh yeah Siep, I'd like to see that too !!!!

I love the cases CD has for their books! Can't wait to see what a traycase for a lettered edition looks and feels like!

[frik51]

I guess I should have said, one of the most gorgeous productions I own.
The case is nicer than the book!

It's one of the most gorgeous books I own.

I love the Lettered edition can't afford it but would love to have just the traycase it is really nice looking.

Oh this was driving me nuts knowing there was some hidden trivia out there :-) Glad to finally know. I have the one with him in front of the stadium...

Brian posted a more in-depth explanation on his blog.

That's a great bit of trivia! I like it.

Yea I was really hoping people would puzzle this one out, but it looks like everyone who's on the different message boards all got the same card.

Edit: Also it really freaked me out for a min when I was shipping the Blockade Billy's, as I didn't know there was supposed to be two different cards.

[Brian James Freeman]

I don't know that I can show you a picture, as I don't think we have any of the one left. But about 1/4 of the cards have King standing in front of a different background. If I remember correctly, it's because no one could decide which image they liked better, or something like that.

There were two different photos for the SK baseball cards. One card used the original photo of King that he sent us. The other was the same photo of King, only he was photoshopped into a stock photo of Wrigley field. We couldn't find a good stock photo of Fenway that had the right perspective. The backs of the cards were the same. These might not be the exact final versions, but they'll give you an idea of what each card looked like:

Can you tell us what it is now and show us some pictures of the differences?
