Beach Boys - Deluxe

Rare Editions 2025

The official anthology of America's biggest band was published in a sell-out limited edition of only 500 signed copies. Two are available, each signed by Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine, and Bruce Johnston.

Their only official book, The Beach Boys by The Beach Boys is the band's definitive anthology, published in a limited edition of only 500 copies worldwide. This beautifully produced volume charts the group's evolution from Hawthorne garage band to international stardom. Told through the words of Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine, Dennis Wilson, Carl Wilson and Bruce Johnston, and accompanied by rare and iconic photographs and historical ephemera, the result is an extraordinary autobiography.

Strictly limited to only 415 numbered and signed copies, the Deluxe edition is quarter-bound in apple leather and sand Toile Ocean cloth. Woven from 100% recycled plastic gathered from oceans and coastlines, the cloth is characterised by its high durability. Portraits of the band members are screen-printed onto the cover. The binding is completed with coloured foil blocking, metallic blue page edging, and six colour page ribbons. The band's 400-page, large-format Deluxe edition is presented within a handcrafted, cloth-bound solander case, decoratively finished with screen-printing and foil embossing.

The Deluxe copies of The Beach Boys by The Beach Boys are each hand-signed by Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine and Bruce Johnston. Selling out within days of its first announcement in the spring of 2023, this is a final opportunity to secure two mint boxed copies from the publisher's collection.

Beach Boys - Artluxe

Rare Editions 2025

Only 85 Artluxe copies of The Beach Boys by The Beach Boys were ever created. Two are available, each signed by Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine, and Bruce Johnston.

The Beach Boys by The Beach Boys is the definitive official anthology of one of the world’s most iconic bands, published as a limited edition of only 500 signed and numbered copies worldwide. The first 85 copies in the edition were Artluxe copies.

For collectors, the Artluxe edition is a true standout. Limited to only 85 numbered copies and signed by Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine, and Bruce Johnston, it is quarter-bound in apple leather and sea-blue Toile Ocean cloth – woven entirely from recycled ocean plastics. The large-format, 400-page volume features metallic blue page edges, colored foil blocking, six page ribbons, and screen-printed portraits of the band members on the cover. Artluxe copies are presented in a handcrafted cloth-bound solander case.

The Artluxe copies additionally include an exclusive limited edition artwork: an archival Giclée print made onto heavyweight, 100% cotton-rag paper. Entitled 'Good Vibrations', the artwork reproduces a previously unpublished collage of stills from the filming of the song's recording and mixing at Columbia and Western Studios, Los Angeles, 1966. Each print is hand numbered, blind-stamped with the Beach Boys insignia, and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the publishers. The print is hand-framed in ash wood and includes a UV-protective glaze.

This is a very special opportunity to own a meticulously crafted celebration of America’s greatest band.

Beautifully bound in silk-screened cloth with bronze-edged pages, the book features gold and bronze ink accents and colourful tracing paper inserts. Included is an original 28-page commemorative concert booklet and four laminated backstage passes, all housed in a folding solander box.
