Fs2s Collector And Deluxe Edition Bonuses

I wrote a note for you…

Those of you who subscribe to the Genesis Publications newsletter should have received a notification regarding the above signed by David Bowie facsimile of a While You Were Out memo.

The facsimile has been produced as a bookplate to paste in to the Collector Edition of From Station To Station, as the Deluxe copies were signed by Bowie anyway.

Here’s the content of that e-mail for those that haven’t subscribed yet…

While you were out… David Bowie Called

In a move that will delight Bowie fans and Genesis book collectors alike, David Bowie is signing copies of Geoff MacCormack’s FROM STATION TO STATION – available to purchase from Genesis Publications today.

These very special books are a must-have for any collector and are available to order now. Purchase your copy of this fabulous limited edition with a facsimile ‘While You Were Out’ memo, hand-signed and dated by David Bowie, pasted into the inside front cover of your book.

Geoff MacCormack’s tales of his travels with Bowie from ’73-76 have already earned his fascinating book five star reviews, with Goldmine describing the book as “leather-bound, gold-trimmed and so full of great, candid pictures that you feel by the end of it that you yourself were on tour with Bowie – without the sex, drugs and rock and roll, of course.”

We are delighted and honoured to announce David Bowie’s participation; it offers a remarkable close to our 35th anniversary year.

David Bowie: “What a terrifically clever idea this is. Take the two of us and pretend that we went to America, Japan and, wait for it, f’ing Russia of all places… and then write a book about it. Brilliant!”

In January 2010 we will be outlining a scheme whereby readers who already own a copy of FROM STATION TO STATION may, if they wish, submit their book to Genesis for the addition of the ‘While You Were Out’ bookplate. This is in thanks for your support, and will be a complimentary service, provided you are able to cover shipping to the Genesis office. More details to be announced soon.

If you subscribed to the Deluxe Edition you will be pleased to learn that you’re not being left out. Indeed, you’re probably already aware of that fact, as you should have received the following communication by now…

Re. Deluxe copies From Station To Station

You may have read in a recent e-newsletter that David Bowie is signing Collector copies from the limited edition, From Station To Station.

We will be providing a scheme in 2010 where readers who have previously purchased Collector copies may have their book signed as well.

Your Deluxe copy of From Station To Station was of course already signed and dated by David Bowie at the time of publication.

Nevertheless, we would like to provide something for everyone. So, to that end, please expect a signed photographic print to be arriving soon courtesy of the book’s author, Geoff MaCormack.

He is signing 350 special numbered prints that are made exclusively for Deluxe customers of From Station To Station. This will be an archival-grade print produced from the negative, created and despatched to you with our compliments, as a token of our thanks.

We’re very grateful. None of these editions would be made possible without your support.

We look forward to writing more in the New Year.

Yours, Nick Roylance – Genesis Publications Limited
