Approach to Publishing the Books

I have said this elsewhere, mostly in passing reference. 

The First Editions of the Storybook Collection will be hand-stitched, custom made to order.  I will be inventorying 100 copies of each book, so that I can meet  prepaid orders at the full MSRP for individual books in a timely manner.  Signed editions are an additional 25%. Contact us by email or use the contact form in the right column. 

Retail Wholesale Pricing (still under review) will require a minimum order of 12 copies of each book and a retailer will be required to stock the full collection of seven books.  A full Keystone will require an initial order of one gross of each book and a commitment of 100 copies of each book per month for one year.  Books to meet these orders will have a turn-around time that has yet to have been determined.  Orders will be prepaid for the first year, after which a deposit of 50% will be required with 30 days on the balance.  Larger orders are possible. No books will be provided if there is an outstanding invoice.

Further, we are seeking to exploit the numerous Ancillary Markets as a means of funding the Stage Production. Hence, I am open to dialogue in this regard. I do expect to job out numerous production aspects and welcome inquiry in this regard.  

We have begun working on the Parade Float (trying to have it ready for a separate Fourth of July presentation) and expect to craft Animatronics for our Gnome presentation and for use in the Gallery Exhibition Walk-thru. We are also evaluation our mission to implement Puppetry and what the extent of that will be, in part, because of the desire to implement a cyclorama walk-thru.  Portions of the Cyclorama will be present in the Gallery Exhibition.  These things are taking precedence over the Stage Presentation, because they require less cost, logistics and will result in hard assets for use in promotion.  However, set construction for the Stage is moving forward with models that will be part of the Gallery Exhibition.
