Buster Mesquite's Cowboy Band
Dear Tony Hillerman Fan,
We are extremely pleased to announce the publication of a new Tony Hillerman work in the form of a children's book, illustrated in color by Navajo artist Ernest Franklin, long associated with Hillerman's work. The story is a reworking of the Grimm Fairy Tale, The Bremmen Town Musicians, with some tongue in cheek humor, whimsical art and a much more satisfying ending.
The book is hardbound, 32 pages, with pictorial dust jacket and published in a small printing. It is priced at $24.95.
One hundred signed and numbered limited editions will be available for $200 each. These are signed by Tony Hillerman and Ernest Franklin on a pictorial limitation page, specially bound and slip cased, and include an original watercolor by Ernest Franklin bound in the book.
Twenty-six signed super limited editions will be offered for $1000 each. Like the limited editions they are signed by Tony Hillerman and Ernest Franklin on a pictorial limitation page, specially bound and slip cased. These also include an original watercolor (13 ½ X 16 ½ in size) used in the production of the book. The watercolor will be custom matted with a cutout motif appropriate to the southwest subject matter. Framing will be left up to the buyer.
The book has arrived from Hong Kong and is at the binder. This is a very unusual and exciting Hillerman item.
