'Hunting Trout' deluxe collectors edition
A special limited edition of 100 leather hand-bound copies of the extremely popular 'Hunting Trout', printed on imported art paper and each individually numbered and signed by Dr Tom Sutcliffe, is being proposed. Tom would like to get a feel from collectors of rare fly fishing literature what they would be prepared to pay for something like this.
Based on my recent involvement in the printing of 100 leather bound copies of 'History of the Kruger Park' that fetched R10000 per set of three volumes, and all sold out within a week from the launch, I would say the deluxe edition of Hunting Trout should be pitched at R3000 a copy. Bear in mind, this is a special limited collectors edition, and as such will have huge appeal amongst collectors of fine rare fly fishing literature. What do you guys think?
Your thoughts or recommendations would be greatly appreciated
