The Special TudorCON 2014 Edition of The Unforgettable Buzz

<img alt="The Special TudorCon 2014 Edition of The Unforgettable Buzz Electric Football history book">We are proud to unveil the TudorCON 14 Special Edition of The Unforgettable Buzz.

Putting a book into mass production means making compromises. Those compromises are made in order to make the book easier and more affordable to produce. And while we are TOTALLY proud of the current version of The Unforgettable Buzz, we did end up with a “wish list” for a book without the production constraints we had to follow.

Obviously the book has a new cover. With TudorCON 14 happening in Philadelphia we couldn’t resist the chance to “localize” the book. So we now have a cover featuring a 1967 Tudor version Hall of Famer and former Eagles’ running back Ollie Matson carrying the ball against the Cowboys. As you can see, our original Lee Payne cover image — which we absolutely treasure — served as the template for this new cover.  

The other change is at the bottom. There we have the TudorCON 14 logo as well as “Designer’s Cut | Special Convention Edition.” This means the interior of the book is restored to exactly how our designer Michael Kronenberg originally “saw” it. Most of the compromises we made involved altering text and images away from Michael’s original design. Our Designer’s Cut leaves Michael’s inspired artistic vision for The Unforgettable Buzz totally intact.

Enhancing Michael’s vision in the Special Edition is a higher grade of paper, which not only produces sharper text and photos, it feels better on the fingertips. The ink quality has been upgraded too, resulting in the best looking images we’ve seen.

The Designer’s Cut is a true Premium Edition, and will be available in a limited quantity only at TudorCON 14. Each book will be numbered, and Roddy and I will gladly put our signatures inside (Michael, unfortunately, will be on official duty at the Film Noir Foundation gathering in San Francisco).

See you very soon in Philly!!!

 

Earl & Roddy
