Will a PDF version of the new book be released for sale to the general public?

Likely not the PDF, at least in the current form.
An eBook is a possibility later on, though it is not currently in the works due to the many projects I have ongoing.
What I potentially could do is offer an updated PDF (perhaps with the fixes the corrections that are being made for the hard-cover) and offer that PDF for direct sale through my site at a reasonable discount compared to the book, as there would be no printing or shipping costs.

I also received mine and I am very impressed. Thanks for taking all of that time to make something like this for the coin collecting community. I almost do not want to read it because I do not want to crease the cover

I know, thats why i got 2, i one read and the other with sigs to tuck away.  Really is a well thought out book.  If someone here didnt buy one worth the dough.

Whoops, I meant to say Autographs Edition. The AE will be hard cover, larger, and have over 20 signatures of various manufacturers! (This is mainly a PSA; I believe you are one of the manufacturers providing signatures).

Anyway, onto the offer:
Regular versions sell for $89 at www.coinfirm.org
Open offer:$69 ($20 OFF) ONLY for buyers that previously bought one of the xx/100 copies!
Shipping included.

I wish to inform everyone that #2 of the Signature Edition is available for private sale. It is the last one. I do not have any more; this is the last first-hand SE book that will be sold. It is available for immediate shipment.
#1 sold for 3BTC

Received mine, thanks!

- Include a hologram with a private key inside, allowing the books to function as paper wallets. They will be affixed by Howard Kesselman

where's the public key?

I provided a file of the 25 public addresses for the Sig Edition to elianite, listed by book number.  I imagine he could PM you, if he knows the book number you have.

[Lairew]

thanks!

I also wanted to mention that the one large label used for Matthew's signature in the Sig Edition was more cream colored than the white paperback page, so it stands out more. 

The new 1"x3" labels I purchased for the 26 coin maker autographs (to be used in the Autograph Edition), as well as the square holograms are much more white that blends in nicely with the pages.  This link to my thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1486405.msg15119801#msg15119801  shows that picture if anyone is curious.

I intend to publish a list of public keys for all of the Signature Edition books. If you are an owner and strongly oppose this, please voice your concerns to me by PM.

Will each wallet have a nominal satoshi in it, to place it in the blockchain ?

Maybe a comment, as well saying what it is ?

Technically it could, but I didn't think it was a good idea in selling funded physical coins/wallets to US customers.  I didn't want to cause needless drama for US sales.  For the same reason why TGBEX and Satori dont sell pre-funded coins to the US, and Casascius, Lealana stopped selling seller-funded coins.

Of course, the buyer could pay for the funding like the Lealana model.

I'd forgotten about Fincen. They could still gripe over a satoshi

Buyer funded it will need to be then !

[elianite]

I suppose that if some individual wishes to send a satoshi to each address.. that would be fully out of bithalo's or my control..

I have finished going through a 20 page list of minor corrections which I have implemented. This First Revised Edition will soon be published as a hard-cover.

I will also be making an exciting announcement in the next day or two!   (something to celebrate the halving).

Stay tuned!
