Blood Order Collection Book

Hi All, It's correct I am considering printing my collection book, but I did not have enough details at the time of posting, sorry.
I wanted to gauge interest. The plan would be to produce the book in full colour, landscape and A4 size with a faux leather cover or black linen, undecided.
The book will be 100 pages of full colour on every page, it is not a reference book with discussion around the order and the period. What is does do is presents my collection and a description and history of each man the medals belonged to.
Some of you have seen it at recent shows and guys have enquired if I would run off some copies, everyone always says I should print it. I thought with the SOS around the corner It would be the ideal time as I could deliver a small number in person at the show (they will be 1kilo each so will be limited as I only get 23k baggage!) so there would be no delivery cost to factor. Likewise I could do so later in the year, perhaps in Kassel.
In order to secure the best printing options and for me to start getting everything straight, in what is now a tight timeframe, please could you respond to this thread if you would want a copy.
It will not be registered as 'a book' this is a private collection presentation and hopefully will also serve as a good reference on original material. I would not be expecting to print more than 10-20 copies and if the interest is not there, none!
The book is printed in the UK on excellent quality paper.
The price should be £55 (provided I get the deal I'm after as the actual print cost is a lot more usually) hand delivered to SOS. If you require postage then that should be possible at cost later.
I have had one very kind offer of being able to base the books at a members SOS table, thank you.

Not sure how many man hours went in to this, it's been a labour of love and I hope that's reflected in the work. After this project I greatly admire WAF colleagues who have carried out similar projects! I remember JRs railroad eagle efforts years ago, while that wax very much a reference book mine is not that but I promise you if you have the book the pictures say all you will ever need to know to see fake from real
