Dracula - Lettered
These are the pages where I can show off my Lettered Editions. The first books are now in and shipping and the feedback has been exceptional. Thanks to all of you who took the trouble to write.
I also wanted to give a comment on the pricing of my lettered editions. In order to promote the press the first lettered editions I published were very competitively priced but I couldn't hold this price forever. Other retailers charge in excess of £300 for the traycases alone .... they are that good! So the prices have had to go up (Collectors Club Members have had their discount increased to 20% to soften the blow somewhat). Given that I was selling the lettered editions at around 50% of their market value it makes those early ones something of a bargain!
