Adam Ant Art WITHDRAWN
20th May 2008
We’re sorry for the disappointment felt by the few of you who have expressed an interest in obtaining copies of Adam Ant Art, but sadly there are just not enough of you to make it possible.
Producing a book of the scope and size of Adam Ant Art is expensive, and has become more so since the ‘credit crunch’ has ramped up the price of paper, shipping and distribution in recent weeks. Before any book is undertaken there are costings to be made which are dependent upon the size of the print run and sale cost of the book. It has to make financial sense before such a big and expensive project as AAA is begun. Unfortunately the number of people registering an interest in the book has not come close to matching the minimum print numbers.
The only way that it might be possible to create the book would be to charge a very large price for it from buyers, which is not something that Adam wants to do. Please note that the book was to be produced by Adam himself and was not being prepared with any publisher. The publishers of Adam’s autobiography, Macmillan, have no interest in publishing AAA, neither does any other major publishing house, because they do not believe that it will sell enough copies to make it financially viable for them.
As we have always said, ‘in order to proceed we need to confirm a certain level of interest’ and that simply hasn’t been reached. The idea may be raised again in the future if and when things change. Once again, apologies for your disappointment.
