    Hah.

    Yeah, I think they're a few different editions of it.

    Yeah, there's 10 000 copies of it.

    The first 1000 are sold with an artwork by Jeff Koons.

    The other 9000 are a bit cheaper but worth it anyways.

    When Ali dies, I guess the value will increase a lot !

    I've seen it in a couple of the big book shops in London.
    The display has it's own stand, a pedestal.
    And the display copy only had about a quarter of the pages or less, the rest of it was blank pages (I assume because of printing costs !).
    And I think you have to order a copy for delivery, not sure they have any in stock, but they might have.
    It's BIG !
    It's plush and expensive.
    I think it was £2,000 or thereabouts.

    I'm not sure any other subjects have commanded such attention to warrant a book like this.
    Muhammad Ali's iconic status is incredible.
