Business advice....

hahaha, yah defintally =) Thats very interesting, I did not know that =) I could not imagine binding a book by hand, let alone life before the printing press, where everyone had to write them by hand.

Here is an 1819 Bible I own that has a hand sewn leather cover. Not exactly the same as we are discussing but similar in concept.

 

Wow that a really cool book! Its amazing to think of everything that that bible may have been through. I wonder how much different the grammar, and punctuation is in that book in comparison to modern versions.

 

Well, if you and your book become famous - it will be one of the "original 13 error copies" and first printings available and therefore will carry fantastic numismatic value.

If not, well - ..it happens, and you need to use spellcheck next time.

 

And say that each has the name of one of the original 13 states in honor of the US

 

haha, I like it =) , I could write individual states in different places for each book if it came to that!

 

so, each would be unique, and a rarity!

 

To make them really valuable cut up one of the shirts you wore while writing it and stitch pieces inside the cover of each one.......

 

hahaha!!! Yah, and I could write my name in 3 different places, and tape a few coins over the coin pictures in each one!!!! People would go crazy! =)

 

What if you post a label on the inside cover stating:

"The author has intentionally included a typographical error within this volume. This is an exercise in learning to look carefully at coinage. One slight error on any coin can make a huge difference in its value. In this case, to the first one dozen (12) purchasers of this book, who write to the author and correctly identify the included typographical error, each will receive a complimentary silver Roosevelt Dime. Good hunting. Author" Jack

 

I love that idea!!!
