package in honor of the recent 40th anniversary of the Woodstock Festival of 1969,

out in just a few hours. Orders were taken for additional books which will be
signed by Lang and Diltz and delivered to the purchaser. Of the 1,000 limited

This hand-crafted box set not only recounts the incredible story behind Woodstock

by the prominent artists, thinkers, politicians, writers, designers and
photographers who lived it. Original content contributors include Arlo Guthrie,

including an original, unused Woodstock ticket in each box set. In a time
capsule-style, the 1,000 hand bound box sets contain a Woodstock experience that

events.

About Genesis Publications
Brian Roylance founded Genesis Publications in 1974. His aim was to start a unique
publishing company true to the arts of printing and craftsmanship and to establish a
community shared by its authors and readers. Years later, in 1995, he found himself
explaining the nature of hand-bound books in an interview with the New York Times
and noted, "I suppose to some extent I am stuck in a time warp. I don't know of many
people who go to this much trouble to produce a book anymore. But I think there is a
future for it." Today, Genesis is headed by Brian's son and daughter. Many other
publishers have been inspired by the work of Genesis but few, if any, have matched
the attention to design and craftsmanship for which Genesis has become known. As a
result, over 35 years since work began on the first book, Genesis has developed a
reputation for exceptional signed limited editions.
