Union 5-3992 Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 That seems a bit opportunistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue J Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 That seems a bit opportunistic Of course it is...but speaking as objectively as I possibly can (which is really not objectively at all!), I’d love to have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greyfriar Posted January 25, 2020 Author Share Posted January 25, 2020 Relax guys, here's the original text from ECW Press: UPDATE ON OUR FAR AND NEAR GIVEAWAY:Thank you so much to everyone for sharing your warm memories of Neil ❤️ We were floored by the tremendous outpouring of love for him, and it was very hard for his editor Jen to choose. Our 10 winners will be notified today, but if you didn't get selected, we wanted to provide one more chance for Neil's fans to get a copy... We're auctioning off our last 15 signed copies of Far and Near, and donating 100% of funds raised to the Gord Downie Fund for Brain Cancer Research, which Rush supported. The auction opens today at noon EST, and closes Monday, January 27, at noon EST. https://www.32auctions.com/neilpeartIf you'd like to read more about the Fund or make a direct donation, you can do so here: https://donate.sunnybrook.ca/gord#NeilPeart #Rush 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaminbenb Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Just glad I have two postcards from Neil, and the Hemisphere's album signed by the whole band. No need for anything else....my "personalized" shit is so cool! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfwayToGone Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 It doesn’t say whether these are part of the whole numbered slipcase edition that was on backstage or a separate bookplate signed edition the publisher had. I have all those slipcase editions, and I’m pretty sure only had to find the first one on ebay. I don’t plan on selling them anytime soon, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibTnJohn Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Aaargh! I hope they aren't the slipcase editions -- they were shown on the website as sold out before they were even announced in the newsletter. I have all of the others. Purposely only bought one of each of the others to make sure other fans could get copies. . . well, I did buy an extra of the Clockwork Angels graphic novel signed by Neil, Kevin and Nick to one day trade for the slipcover of Far and Near. . .
