Apologies to those who have not received their books in time for Christmas— Santa's elves had to get back to the North Pole. But we'll continue prepping the remaining orders and will resume shipping after Christmas week. (That will also allow the volume of mail in the U.S. Postal system to lighten up a bit.)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Keep in mind that anyone in the Los Angeles area is more than welcome to arrange to stop by and pick up their book. Just e-mail me at:</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="mailto:info@archive-editions.com" target="_blank">Archive Editions</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">—and we'll work out the details.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the meantime, if you are in the L.A. area be sure to stop by <b><a href="http://www.creaturefeatures.com/" target="_blank">Creature Features</a></b> in Burbank to view Mike Hill's extraordinary life-size tribute sculpture of Ray Harryhausen. You'll also enjoy browsing Creature Features' amazing selection of collectibles, magazines, soundtrack CDs, model kits, and much more, from stop motion to Universal classics to sci-fi TV and much more. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In order to be as fair to everyone as much as possible, we have been working our way through the shipments in the order that purchases came in from the time pre-orders commenced in August, 2012. We're doing the best we can to take care of everyone's order as quickly and as efficiently as possible. Since these are high-quality books, we're also taking time to pack the shipments with bubble-wrap, etc., to ensure that everyone's copy arrives undamaged. Even with that we manage to get quite a few orders out the door every day.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Several people have written to ask if their books have shipped yet. When the postage and mailing labels are printed out, my online postage system automatically generates a shipping confirmation e-mail (which includes a tracking number). I send the confirmation e-mail the same day the shipment goes out. So the simple answer to that question is: if you haven’t received the shipping confirmation e-mail, then your order hasn’t shipped yet.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You’re still welcome to inquire-- I realize that e-mails and servers are not 100% reliable. But in general, the shipping confirmation e-mail will tell you if your book has shipped.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Local Pickup Option</b></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In a few cases I realized that some people writing in were in the local Los Angeles area. I followed up and we made arrangements for a local pickup rather than waiting for the book to go through the mails. So if anyone reading this lives in the greater Los Angeles area and would like to pick up, just drop me a line by clicking here: <a href="mailto:info@archive-editions.com" target="_blank">Local Pickup Inquiry</a> (be sure to add a Subject Line like "Local pickup?" -- blank Subject Lines often cause emails to get thrown into the Junk Mail folder and I might miss it). For your reference, I am located in the Los Feliz district near Griffith Park. Stopping by any time, including weekends and reasonable evening hours, would be fine.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thanks to everyone for your patience and support. We’re getting’ there…!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sorry for the delay in updating things— we've been busy!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We have finally started shipping </span><b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Ray Harryhausen - Master of the Majicks</i></b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Vol. 1. Transport from the warehouse of 2-1/2 tons of books (1,000 books at 5 pounds each = 5,000 pounds, or 2-1/2 tons) was quite a task. We now have a large room full of books (see pictures, below), gradually reducing down as packing and shipping continues (hooray!). This is without doubt the most glamorous aspect of book publishing…!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Orders are being sent out in the order they were received, which we feel is fair to all. Every effort is being made to expedite all of the orders, and we appreciate everyone’s continued support and patience.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A shipping confirmation e-mail will be sent to each customer as orders go out, whether by Media Mail or Priority Mail, and each shipping confirmation e-mail will include a tracking number.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hang in there— your book is (or soon w</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">ill be) on its way!</span><br />

I should be able to pick up the shipment this coming Tuesday or Wednesday. Given the need to truck the shipment to my offices and unload, I should be able to start shipping customer orders by Thursday or Friday. All preparations have been made on my end to start that process.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Everyone should keep in mind that I will be sending out a shipping confirmation e-mail (with tracking number) as each order goes out, so you will know that your order is on its way.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the meantime, tomorrow night (Monday, October 21) I will be attending a midnight screening of <b><i>The Alien Factor</i></b> (1977) at The Silent Movie Theater on Fairfax in Hollywood. This was the first feature film I worked on— I designed and created the opening main title sequence and animated the stop motion "Leemoid" creature at the end. All pretty crude in retrospect, but "ya gotta start somewhere." I'll bring along what's left of the Leemoid model for a little show-and-tell before the screening.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here's the link to "The United States of Horror" series going on at The Silent Movie Theater, which includes the listing for <b><i>The Alien Factor</i></b>:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'll be attending <b><a href="http://www.monsterpalooza.com/sonofmonsterpalooza/index.html" target="_blank">Son of Monsterpalooza</a></b> this coming Saturday at the Marriott </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Burbank </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hotel and Convention Center (near the Burbank airport).

Hopefully, this will be corrected soon. In the meantime, I am unable to send or receive e-mail using any of the "@archive-editions.com" addresses. If you have sent an e-mail, don't worry— I'll get it eventually and will respond as soon as I can.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the meantime, I can report that transport of <b><i>Majicks</i></b> Vol. 1 is proceeding as planned. No specific developments, but making forward progress.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'll update this blog next Sunday morning with the latest developments.</span><br />

<br />
Hopefully the ship won't have to tangle with a giant octopus...!<br />
<br />
<b><i>Ray Harryhausen - Master of the Majicks</i></b> Vol. 1 includes a chapter on those George Pal <b><i>Puppetoons</i></b><span style="font-size: xx-small;">®</span> that Ray worked on. Coincidentally, a Blu-ray release of a restored edition of <b style="font-style: italic;">The Puppetoon</b><span style="font-size: xx-small;">®</span><b style="font-style: italic;"> Movie</b> is scheduled for late October. This edition will include several more <b><i>Puppetoons</i></b><span style="font-size: xx-small;">®</span> than the original release back in 1987, and this edition is limited to a pressing of 3,000 copies. We're not connected to this project, but since this film is of interest to stop motion fans, I thought I'd include here a convenient link for placing a pre-order at Blu-ray.com: <a href="http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/The-Puppetoon-Movie-Blu-ray/80809/" target="_blank">The Puppetoon Movie Blu-Ray</a><br />

Estimated time of arrival is the first week in October. At that point, the shipment will go through Customs (3 days to a week, depending on volume of imports at that time), transport to a holding warehouse, and finally be trucked to my offices for packing and shipping customer orders.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>We're gettin' there!</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Below are two photos of the shipment at the warehouse in preparation for loading onto the ship. Shown are two of three pallets of boxes. There are 8 books to a box for a total of 1,000 copies.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Reminder-- We're now down to about <b><i><span style="color: red;">10 copies left</span></i></b> of the print run, so there's still just a little time left for that last-minute order.</span><br />

The complete inventory of 1,000 copies has now been boxed and crated at the factory in China and this coming week will be loaded into a container and placed aboard ship. It will take a couple of weeks to make that journey to the Port of Los Angeles, and then go through Customs (which, based on past experience, can take from 3 days to 10 days, depending on the volume of imports at the port at any given time). Inland trucking to my warehouse is next, and finally packing and shipping individual customer copies. If all goes well, your order should be in the mail to you in the first week of October.</div>

<b><i><u><span style="color: red;">Production Update</span></u></i></b>: The high-resolution full color proofs for <b><i>Ray Harryhausen - Master of the Majicks </i></b>Vol. 1 have been received, including a "dummy" copy of the hardcover book and dust jacket. Everything looks great! Having worked on this book for so long, one tends to get "jaded" looking at the layouts over and over, but I must say that I became excited all over again at seeing these color proof pages. Everything is coming together quite nicely.<br />
<br />
Having said that, I found just a handful of errors in the text, so I corrected those and output 5 replacement pages. (It seems that no matter how much all of us proofread and check and double-check, these little "gremlins" still pop up here and there.)<br />
<br />
In any case, we're getting there! Thanks to everyone for your patience. The book will be coming your way soon.<br />
<br />
Scroll down to review some snapshots of just a few of the color proofs.<br />

These are intermediate proofs, essentially color photocopies of the pages which are used to confirm and lock down page numbering, placement, etc. This was done because of the last minute additions and rearrangement of the final pages of the book which I made in order to include a tribute to Ray on the occasion of his passing. There were some other page numbering corrections elsewhere and, all things considered, it was decided to do this intermediate step before going any further.<br />
<br />
I found no problems in this set of proofs, so onward to the next step!<br />
<br />
Here's a snapshot of the "blue line" proofs <i>(click image for enlarged viewing)</i>:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0ZdqoEAo6Xk/UajVV8xfl4I/AAAAAAAAAFs/iIB7FAf96YI/s1600/Vol1BlueLine.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="210" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0ZdqoEAo6Xk/UajVV8xfl4I/AAAAAAAAAFs/iIB7FAf96YI/s400/Vol1BlueLine.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As seen here, the proofs are in sections known as "signatures" which replicates how the final book will be printed and assembled. Not included yet is the hardcover and dust jacket.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The next step, now underway, is the creation of the "digital proofs" -- these are actually printed on the paper stock to be used in the book itself and represent a high-quality version of the final book. This set of proofs is used to approve and lock in color (photos and graphics), black-and-white (grayscale) images, text color, etc. Supplied along with the set of digital proofs will be a "dummy" copy-- the hardcover itself with gold-stamped title on cover and spine with blank paper bound inside. This will provide a sample of the physical book to check dimensions, binding, etc. Also coming with these elements will be a full color proof of the wrap-around dust jacket.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Everything is moving along nicely, and, while we don't yet have a specific shipping date just yet, we're on track to ship in early-mid July. There are some variables in there, especially regarding transport, import & customs clearance, etc., and as soon as we have a reliable calendar, I'll let everyone know.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

I should have this in hand for approval in about a week.<br />
<br />
We happened to discover two minor page numbering errors and I was able to correct those in time to add in to the proofs. In addition to the page proofs, I'll be receiving a "dummy" copy of the book-- the hardcover with blank white pages bound inside to check the the book itself, as well as a proof of the dust jacket. Hopefully there will not be any major or difficult corrections to be made.<br />
<br />
I also had the opportunity to add a brief tribute to Ray in acknowledgement of his passing, written by the author Mike Hankin. As such, this volume, with its coverage of Ray's early years as well as his Retirement and all of the awards, appearances and accolades, will serve as a fitting tribute to Ray as a person (separate from coverage of his individual feature films).<br />
<br />
The book can still be pre-ordered at our website, <a href="http://www.archive-editions.com/" target="_blank">Archive Editions</a><br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Ray Harryhausen</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
June 29, 1920 - May 7, 2013</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The passing of a legend, the end of an era. It's somewhat ironic that when Ray concluded his career in 1981 with <b><i>Clash of the Titans</i></b>, his work was somewhat regarded as "old fashioned" in some circles, yet nowadays with the proliferation of CGI in which so many action pictures tend to have a slick, homogenous look, Ray's work still holds up. His films are remembered clearly and distinctly, and many of us can cite the first time we ever saw a Ray Harryhausen movie. And, for many of us, his films prompted an interest in art, animation, special effects and even scientific disciplines like paleontology. He left us with a rich legacy of imagination and artistry that is inspirational to this day.</div>

The above photo is one of my favorite images, first seen in the March, 1959 issue of <b><i>Argosy</i></b> magazine <i>(below)</i>. The article by Dolph Sharp was one of the first full features on Ray and his work in the mainstream press, and portions were later quoted by Forry Ackerman in the 3-part "Son of Kong" series on Ray in <b><i>Famous Monsters of Filmland</i></b>. The Argosy issue shows up on eBay from time to time, and is a highly desirable Harryhausen collectible.</div>

The photos were taken by William Woodfield, a celebrity photographer known at the time for having photographed the semi-nude Marilyn Monroe on the set of her last (unfinished) film <b><i>Something's Got to Give</i></b>. He was also part of the original writing team on TV's <b><i>Mission: Impossible</i></b> TV series and directed <b><i>The Hypnotic Eye</i></b> in 1960. Woodfield told me in 1999 that, unfortunately, the negatives of the <b><i>Argosy</i></b> shoot with Ray were all delivered back to the agency or publisher (he couldn't remember which), so their whereabouts are unknown (even they even still exist at all).</div>

His work thrilled millions, and also inspired many people to follow their own dreams in film, paleontology, and many other areas. </span><br />

I made a few minor corrections on about 7 pages and re-output them, but generally everything looks pretty good. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now the factory is preparing films and plates, and will soon prepare the physical (paper) proofs, as well as a "dummy" copy of the hardcover. All of this should arrive in 2-3 weeks. Always a slightly nerve-wracking experience (the anticipation, anyway), but at the same time it's always exciting to see the first printed copy.</span><br />
