Nice score Grant. The book is sweet! I have two left, I am going to try to get as many autographs as I can in November at my birthday ride. My plan was to donate one of the books to Rad for auction but I don't know if it would be better with autographs or left unopened and in mint condition. :-\

very limited production, about 2500, seems that a few well placed people get a few, then they can give them to who they want. I know someone who got one, and is very stoked.
-
yip, seems that way. 2500 made overall. Glad you got one Grant!

Ok, so here are the pics and what I know about this project. The book is awesome. Most of the pictures used are being seen for the very first time by anyone. The pics they ran of me are all new to me for sure. I haven't had time to read a thing in it, since I didn't get home until 2 AM this morning. I just wanted to get the pics up here for you all to check out.
What a cool experience it was. This event was held at the Brooklyn Projects in LA last night. There are only 2500 books available world wide as I understand it. I don't know how they are going to be distributed? Only 500 of those books came in these special cases. 250 of those were distributed in Asia, the other 250 here in the US. I would suggest checking with your local area Nike retailer, that may be a good place to start.
I saw quite a few of the old school at this event. Mike D, Brian B, Eddie F, Matt H, Spike, Lou, Todd Anderson, Rich Sigur, Steve McCloud, and Chris Moeller to name a few.
Here is the book in the box

Here is the book and the letter that comes with it. The book is actually sealed in celophane, but I had to open it up to see inside.

Finally a pic of me from the book which I had never seen before......Pretty stoked as this was the largest crowd I ever performed in front of. I think it was the 4th of July before an Osmond concert in a stadium. It was me and Rick Moliterno.
