This book will go on sale later this month for a hefty 445 pounds. Page, one of the world's top guitarists, has chosen nearly 650 photographs to provide a visual history of his musical career, annotated by extended captions written by him.
Only 2,500 copies are being sold, each of them signed and hand-bound in leather and laser-cut Perspex. The pages and spine are decorated in gold, and the book is presented in a silk-bound slipcase.
Although most fans are likely to balk at the price, Page said he appreciated the "fine bookbinding" of the speciality publishers, Genesis.
