Commander copies. £295 (+P&P)

The solander box, which holds both 'Commander' and 'Starship' copies is a work of art in its own right. Handmade from strong millboard covered in buckram, it features a silkscreen image of the 'Starship' with silver foil blocking. Lenticular images of the Stones appear in the aircraft's cut away windows.
Recessed areas under the book house the room keys in a drawstring bag and the backstage passes. The tour 'Access Backstage' silk armband serves as a pull ribbon for the large format book.
