Autographs for the Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins

[elianite]

This was a very cool idea. I just did a ton of reading on how the idea popped up early in Elianite's Encyclo. thread (back in 2015) and then your origination of gaining the signatures to seeing the finished product. Very, very cool.

I did notice, however that Mike Caldwell doesn't appear on the list - any particular reason he decided to abstain or was not included?

Wonderful to hear that you have found our projects interesting!

As for the lack of Mr. Caldwell, the short of it is that we already got his signatures for the 'Signature Edition' of the paperback. When we later decided o make a hardcover, we felt that if Casascius did sign these, some buyers of the original paperback would feel upset that I suddenly came out with an overall superior offering, which they would have wanted instead had they known about it. Secondly, he is no lo nger active in Bitcoin and we didnt want to ask him for signatures again only a few months later.

I also have #2,3,4 available, but I may either hold onto those or offer at a later date.  But otherwise, these are the last for sale

There were cards before coins. BitBills were the first I had. I also had a 10 bitcoin card I bought early on via bitpay…I forget what it was called. But I'm sure there were more cards than those two examples early on. http://web.archive.org/web/20110712131117/http://bitbills.com/

Yes, Bitbills are considered the first physical wallets....before Casascius.

For a limited time, remaining loose sets on sale for .25 BTC

I am likely moving in two weeks, and prefer to clear these out before packing.  

Numbers 12, 18, 25 are the last ones available for sale.

I will be keeping #2, 3, 4 for now.

The label sets will not be repeated again, so this is your last chance.  



EDIT: Only 1 remaining.  #25 is the last set left.

Thank you Deffy.  The last set is reserved.  I expect to have all sets that are for sale to be sold out today.    I'll hold onto the last numbered sets #2 - 4 for now.

I appreciate the time and energy that everyone contributed to this project.  Thank you to all the coin makers that helped out.  

[elianite]

Congrats on getting these sold.

I'd like to say that there remain a very small number of Autographs Edition books. Contact me if you'd like one.

[bithalo]

Thank you also to mj and elianite. 

All label sets offered for sale, are now sold.  The last one was shipped out today.

I will hold onto numbers #2, 3, 4.  Should anyone be looking for these numbers, send me a PM to discuss pricing, which will likely be priced at full retail.  I'm in no rush to sell these, since I wish to keep at least one or more sets for myself.

Bitcoin Pizza Day bump.

Numbered sets #3-4 available at $495 per set.

I can include some pizza sauce on the labels if desired.   

[Fattcatt]

I'll take # 3 and #4 thanks

[bithalo]

I'll take # 3 and #4 thanks

OK.   I'll reserve both for you.

[bithalo]

I'll take # 3 and #4 thanks

#3 and 4 are sold.  I only have one set left (#2/50) out of the set of 50.  Pricing has been increased to $695, since I'm ok with keeping it if there are no takers.

I would be surprised if it doesn't sell. I love my set. Awesome to see that a lot of coin makers included their holograms. It's an absolute must-have for coin collectors!

Thanks for your kind words.  I'm very glad it's appreciated.

It's a project I won't be doing again, even though we will likely start writing the next edition of the Encyclopedia at some point.
