Ringo Starr Releases 'Photograph' Book in Lavish Deluxe Edition

BY Alex HudsonPublished Oct 21, 2013

A few months ago, Beatles drummer Ringo Starr collected some of his personal pictures for the e-book Photograph. Now, that book is being printed in a limited edition physical version, but it won't come cheap. It's due out on November 22 through Genesis Publications.

Bound with leather and featuring gold foil, the tome costs a whopping £345 ($581.91). The books are hand-numbered, with each one signed by Ringo himself.

Those who are considering forking out the cash for the book can console themselves by knowing that the money goes to a good cause, since Ringo is donating all of his royalties to the Lotus Foundation. It's available to pre-order here.

Photograph features more than 250 rare and never-before-seen images, which chronicle Ringo's early life, his time in the Beatles, and more. Starr said in a statement, "I love pictures put together, showing different times of your life. At the time, I never thought that there would be a whole book of my photographs."

The lavish book looks rather similar to Jimmy Page's pricey photo book from a few years back; not coincidentally, that book also came out through Genesis Publications and was similarly signed and leather-bound.
