FR^?·W)\N%OMPANY pub //cists 3* It should be noted that Gens Creel has been working with Irving Stone sad myself for the past 3| souths, figuring out tbs best ways to prist this book, figuring out little things like underrating the silver with the blue is order to give it a base so that it won't scratch off with handling. Creel has alee provided all the type set, sad did about $3000 worth of typo setting based simply os my verbal request. Bad we gone out of has Vegas to pit this type set, it would have cost us at least four tinos as much, plus the delays is traveling back and forth, proof reading, etc. 4* I can't begin to tell you how invaluable Creel and Silver State Printers has been in the pare* paration of this book so far ?╟÷ and Crsel himself has made four trips to Los Angeles to different plate houses to try to pat the best prices for us, Here again, thin is done as n courtesy to me and not hocauee he was promised the printing of the book. Hr. Creel was con* fidnnt enough in his prices and hla work that he went along with us in the trying tines of Sotting this material together, and if X sound a little heavy in the testimonial department about Silver State, X mean te be because without them this book would still not be ready ** and X aw sure it would coat at least 40 cants more per book to prepare* Sven though we eyre talking about larger questitles of 15,000 and 30,000 bocks, Mr. Creel suggests that we print up the 10,000 now to fit immediate needs ?╟÷ which is another indication of his sincerity in wanting to do the beet for Las Vegas, rather than trying te get n huge order and thus make more profit. 8. One more point is that the changes that we spoke about at the meeting on Vrlday, November 14, will entail some new negatives and eome new plates being made and these changes should be paid over and above the quoted price of $34,878, These changes may cost between $330*$450. 950 8 WILSHIREBLVD. ?╟≤ BEVERLY HILLS/ CAL. ?╟≤ BRADSHAW 2-86 11
