Micallef book, by slowmo on Feb 5, 2007 14:01:32 GMT 1, Is this going on general release soon? I know there was a 500 run from Laz, but you can now buy it from Amazon for £20 plus postage, so I guess they will be printing it like wall and piece?

I really dont think so slowmo, they have been advertised for a while on waterstones for a while also, but the only release was through Laz, and there is NO plans for another larger release / general release of the book. Still getting emails from waterstones saying they are expecting copies any day now, even though they know its its lies. If you are wondering if it is true, write em an email asking about stocks and supply times, let us know the answer as I would like a copy but dont fancy spending the 200 on ebay for the pleasure.

Micallef book, by slowmo on Feb 5, 2007 14:15:34 GMT 1, Ordered it a week ago, but having read the small print, it looks like they will tell me shortly that it is sold out. Shame, I would like a copy, but would never pay £150-£250 for it.
Can we petition Laz for a general print release?

I guess they dunt want to go into a full book release until they are sure it would sell  The way things are going for Micallef they should easily sell say 3,000

Micallef book, by romanywg on Feb 5, 2007 14:41:52 GMT 1, I've been waiting on Amazon for a month now. Thought it was too good to be true and expect to be let down sometime soon although they have my money already.

i read the bottom of this link www.lazinc.com/news/archives/2006/11/ but didn't believe it either. I placed an order on amazon.co.uk and it arrived 2 weeks later. it was signed and as a bonus they sent one of the new laz micallef prints. i couldn't believe it. I'm going to ASDA now to see if they have any signed napalm prints left. keep it sensible!!

I take the riposte with a sense of humour, but I was only asking if it was going into commercial production, didnt expect to get one of the original 500 and also said wouldn't fancy paying the £150-250 to get one.

No offence meant! it wasn't directed at anyone in particular. i was in an ultra sarcastic mood because of missing micallef prints again!

Micallef book, by Curley on Feb 6, 2007 15:01:49 GMT 1, It seems to me there were plenty to go round except the carpet baggers seem to have bought them all.
Judging by the number for sale on e bay the cant be many that have actually been opened and read.

Micallef book, by slowmo on Feb 6, 2007 15:05:36 GMT 1, Its a shame really. But I do understand it, if I was tight up and had £20 to spend, its a better bet than a 10/1 horse isn't it!

Micallef book, by CR on Feb 6, 2007 15:06:30 GMT 1, i've opened mine, fantastic book but just a series of images of his work that are all up on his webpage anyway! nothing at all to read unlike banksys book.
I bought an unsigned one and although i like it and it is a limited edition book with lots of his pictures I can see why alot of people who bought it would consider selling it on again.
That one and harrington are nothing like the mini banksy books which had some narrative.

Micallef book, by slowmo on Feb 6, 2007 15:29:36 GMT 1, Not really about the narrative for me. I like to have books around of people's work or a scenes work so that when people come over they can flick through it (waiting for a cab to come, blind drunk etc). Sure beats an OK magazine and heat lying around.

Micallef book, by lesroy on Feb 15, 2007 17:30:35 GMT 1, I'm with CR on this one... I rang Laz a month ago and picked up a book without an issue. Now whilst the images are gorgeous and a real teaser showcasing Micallef's work.. its a real shame there were no words... I can imagine that book with a little blurb explaining what Antony was thinkingg or what he was trying to get over in a piece would have made it the best £20 ever spent!
Shame... but ace book nonetheless
