Speaking of Big Things: Giant Book

Filed in:

6 Jan 2005

I came across this link on Amazon.com today... a giant 5x7 foot book about the country of Bhutan, published by Friendly Planet, a not-for-profit organization. The giant photographic book is according to Guinness World Records the largest published book in the world. This edition is limited to 500 published copies, and each copy is built expressly for the recipient, is numbered, and can include a personal dedication message. The $15,000 "price" is a donation to Friendly Planet (a publicly supported charitable organization exempt from federal income tax pursuant to IRC 501(c)(3).

Books and big things -- two of my favorite things ever in one.
