If they haven't already made arrangements to add those offstage '71 shots from Scotland...they should.

Would they be relevant for this book?  Isn't this Anthology book for his equipment and stage clothing and things like that?

'In this book, I wanted to include items from my personal archive that have played a part in my overall story, to give the detail behind the detail.' 
– Jimmy Page

The Anthology: Exclusive Preview

We are delighted to share some sneak preview pages from the upcoming publication, Jimmy Page: The Anthology. As you can see, it is on course to become a major publication for 2020, and a once-in-a-lifetime limited edition.

Jimmy Page's first book with Genesis, Jimmy Page by Jimmy Page, was a photographic memoir by one of the world’s most iconic guitar players. Jimmy Page: The Anthology delves deeper, documenting Page’s life through hundreds of items from his private archives, contextual photography spanning six decades, and Page's original written commentary. From iconic guitars and stage costumes to correspondence and diary entries, every piece is brought to life with new text by Page placing it within the story of his phenomenal career.

Scroll on to see some more pages from the book...

The Ultimate Edition

Since starting this project, Jimmy Page and Genesis's editors have added more content to the limited edition than might ever have been expected.

  • The book's page count has been extended to 400 pages
  • Jimmy Page's manuscript has increased to more than 60,000+ words
  • The book will now feature nearly 1,000 images

This is Jimmy Page's most extensive account of his career to date – a fascinating insight into the life of one of the most important musicians of all time.

Pre-Order Now

Jimmy Page: The Anthology will ship during February and March 2020. However, don't let this stop you giving a copy to a loved one this Holiday Season. Pre-order before 5th December and Genesis will send a special greetings card for you to present in lieu of the book's arrival in the New Year.  

Featured on the front of the card is a photograph of Jimmy's Les Paul No.1 resting on the iconic The Song Remains the Same suit. The reverse has details about the book and the inside is left blank for your own message (so will work equally well for birthdays, anniversaries etc...).

Greetings cards will start shipping from 9th December.

Now available to pre-order, the edition of 2,500 copies is almost fully subscribed at the pre-publication price (eventual publication price: £495) and will inevitably, like the edition that preceded it, become an important collector's item.

'I was seduced by the beauty of what a six-string instrument could do, whether it was acoustic or electric, and I was never happy to stay in one style for too long. I always wanted to challenge myself.'

Yep good one Reid’s. why is it priced in US dollars and not £ though? 

Thanks. This is from an American based business  (Barnes & Noble Bookstore).
I found it earlier while searching new releases. It’s on Amazon

https://www.amazon.com/Jimmy-Page-Anthology/dp/1905662610/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=jimmy+page+anthology+book&qid=1586295520&sprefix=jommy+page+anthology&sr=8-1

and other sites soon (if not already).

Yes, indeed. A lot better than paying 10 times more just for an autograph w/ a different book cover.

R😎

True, but don't forget, that's not any autograph, that's The Man you've been a fan of all your life !

Just for the curious out there, the books are ready for shipment, the printer being in Italy, Genesis is waiting a bit (I'd say end of May/June) to ship the books.

Boy, and I thought that was going to be my christmas gift haha

Sure. If I had an Extra $500, I’d love to pick it (signed special / limited edition) up. Now, what would be a great Christmas gift is if The Man himself would give away one signed special  edition book at random to a Led Zeppelin dot com forum member (via a drawing). That would bring a lot of people here to Celebrate his life work together and give one happy winner a special prize.

Such a gesture will never happen here. However, when similar offerings are made elsewhere by other artists a disclaimer usually stipulates membership must have been established by a specific date in the past. This prevents a flood of "new members" who merely intend to sell the prize offering afterward.

Thx, Steve. That makes sense. Yes.

If they ever had it stipulated / legally that members would have to register & have their accounts established by JP’s birthdate (January 2020) to be eligible or something, that would be fair & have a disclaimer stating prize is not for resale (prosecution for any violation, etc). I’m sure you’re right; it was only a thought.

Not to be pedantic but while the rules of etiquette may dictate that it not be offered for resale, there is no such requirement under the law. It's a prize offering, not a conditional gift (like an engagement ring), and thus it is at sole discretion of the prize winner to ever offer it for sale or not.

Gotcha. No problem. Thx, Steve.
