UPDATE:
I have ordered the shipping boxes for the books.
There will be a smaller inner-book box. This one will "fit" the book.
This smaller box will be placed into a larger book mailer surrounded by packing peanuts.
In the meantime.... back to sticking sigs and holos
thanks

Looks good. Thank you mj.
For anyone curious, this is a "Maker's Edition" with the optional upgraded premium paper, available to purchase by all coin makers who participated in signing for the project. It should look similar to the Autograph Edition except for the inside page stamp, which would have different wording and Edition number. I also imagine the AE will have a holo added to the cover like done for the softcover Sig Edition. This particular book happened to have a set of labels added.
Just a FYI that loose sets of labels will be available for sale tomorrow morning.

Looks great. Thank you elianite, bithalo & minerjones for your efforts on this! 
Another speed-bump:
It turns out that the contents of one of the boxes was not packed properly, and nine Premium books were badly damaged on the edges.
minerjones has only 9 Premium books in good condition right now, which means most books will be delayed. One new box is already printing, and a 2nd box will begin this week.
I will prioritize the 9 books to early AE buyers who do not have other books, like Makers Edition's coming from minerjones (as they can then be shipped together).
If anyone purchased an AE as a gift and needs it delivered ASAP, please contact me and ill put you in priority. I hope you can all be understanding to the fact that I am putting quality first.

Thats a shame.
Looks like we'll have to pack these really well in hard boxes and padding when we ship them out to buyers. I remember on my thread that some shipping options were shown https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.15853242

I'll be excited to see them myself. I'm dying to see how they turned out with the premium paper.
As soon as minerjones receives the books, and posts a picture of the labels stickered into one AE, I'll offer my loose sets for sale, and mail out the other free loose sets. Should be soon.

I ordered a soft copy of this from MinerJones shortly before leaving town for work in July. I just go back in town and was excited to check out the book. I would like to make a correction on the CryptoVest section. Hopefully this can be updated in future revisions of the book.
I have no affiliation with the "UK investment club" named Cryptovest, and their logo at the top of the CryptoVest section in the book is not mine. They simply hijacked the name CryptoVest shortly after I came up with it. I am not sure whether they did this unintentionally, or intentionally, nor do I really care. The point being is that CryptoVest physical cryptocurrencies have nothing to do with any investment club, and never have.

ouuuch, that's a big error.
Had I known this 6 hours earlier, I could have easily changed it. but now, doing so would mean up to 5 days of additional delay, and I don't think that is fair for everyone.
That said, I will certainly update future editions.
No worries. I would appreciate updating it in future editions, and I just wanted to make sure everyone knew that I have no association with the CryptoVest investment club.
Thanks!
One thing I want to mention is that the AE hardcover edition won't have the signatures of Mike Caldwell or Matthew Rippon, our co-author. I especially didn't want to ask Mike since he was kind enough to sign for the softcovers and I wanted to leave something unique for the Softcover Sig Edition.
I also didnt have the nerve to ask.
The softcover was also a first edition, versus the now revised edition in the hardcover.
For me, I would personally want one copy in some form to read and another to put away in mint condition. Being the collector nutcase that I am, I would want one of both a softcover and hardcover.
But for someone just wanting one copy, I would completely understand your point.

I would like a hardcover book with all the autographs, but only if could swap out my softcover for it. I'm not sure who would want to do this, but let me know if you are or know someone.
I am with you on that. I also bought the softcover and now it feels like it was sort of a waste to buy. IIRC I spent like $200 on it for the "signature" edition.

Elianite,
Will the buyers of the softcover books earlier this year be eligible to receive a digital copy of the revised edition via PDF? As early supporters of the book, it would be nice to have the updates for this year considering that some of us may not be able to afford or have a need for the hardcover.

Agreed hybridsole, this would be a nice gesture.
Agreed.
I think it is fair to strike a middle ground and allow those who do buy the hardcover some 'exclusive' time with it (in the same way that movies come out in DVD well after theater release).
I will make these available to buyers of the First Print by request.. at a later date. Keep bugging me about it
