    Those collecting the complete set will need a copy of each. The Slipcase will need a slight modification to allow for two copies.

    (If Dan's theory about the numbering is correct.)
    Hahaha I thought the same thing--for this edition. When you consider the entire series, though, things get a little different. This is the only book out of the set that has that limitation page. All other books are either 500 or 600. So it's rarer overall!

    THAT sounds like a winning theory. Makes total sense.

    1. A signature page error. It should read 500
    2. BP isn’t numbering them according to quantity. They have 350 subscribers (people who have bought all or multiple Little Books up to this point) and while those numbers appear everywhere, BP can accommodate those customers by simply giving them their number and still keeping the actual limitation to 350.

    When Series III was announced, it was done so with a limitation of 350. It seems demand was higher than that, as every other book has had a larger limitation (I think). However, depending on how contracts were handled, Tom's hands may have been tied for this one.
    Yeah I thought that too, based on the original announcement at the beginning of this thread.

    I hope it has your number. I did notice when Igot my copy, there was a sticky note on the cover with my number written on it. I haven't had that before. So maybe they only printed 350, but they are numbered for the people who have been buying all along and those numbers are non-sequential. The more I think about it, the surer I am that everyone will get their number.

    Ouch! Well maybe it’s one the two following things:
    1. A signature page error. It should read 500
    2. BP isn’t numbering them according to quantity. They have 350 subscribers (people who have bought all or multiple Little Books up to this point) and while those numbers appear everywhere, BP can accommodate those customers by simply giving them their number and still keeping the actual limitation to 350.

    Did you get yours? And did it have the correct number?
