A couple of notes.

First, when you are giving recognition, the most common place to do that is in the Forward of the book. The Forward usually includes Catalog Preparation, Recognition, and Dedication.

Second, it would be good to include the type of photo you need, such as jpeg (easy PDF conversion) and any file size requirements.

If you haven't found a publisher yet (I know Amazon is easy, but not usually the best for use on small run books) I'd do that first (there are a zillion on line) as some of them have pretty specific requirements for photo quality in order to be able to produce a good product.

Third, if you intend to hand write the serial number, just add an extra line for your signature - such as ___ of 100, Limited First Printing, First Edition ____________ (for signature). That adds a little and costs nothing.

Not sure if you only need ones or other denominations... I can offer a five dollars in VF with MK 44444448 B (series 2013) and a short ladder ten dollars in VF with JF 00000789 C (series 2009).

Thanks everyone for the responses, emails and suggestions so far.

I picked up an 8 digit serial number stamping machine a while back. (was hard to find an 8 digit). So I will number each printing, and have the numbers printed in each batch.
1st printing 500
2nd printing 2000 etc. (whatever the numbers turn out to be.)

It will also be available for digital download on kindle, and the library download system (i forget the name off the top of my head) but those won't be numbered obviously.

Regarding the book, is it really a "serial" number if the numbers are not serial? Just curious.

I can put you in contact with this person if you like. I saw this on a Facebook post and thought of you and your book.

Now that's pretty! That would be great Debrajc. I have filled a few of the gaps that I had left, and am coming down the final few. It's like trying to complete a puzzle or a coin series.

I sent you a PM Mayflower. I have seen some really interesting #'s on this page.

I'm sure this has been a difficult puzzle! Keep us posted for sure.
