The Deluxe Edition is a facsimile of the original sketchbook that traveled the world.
Dice Tsutsumi describing the Deluxe Edition:
"As you may know, we asked for A LOT from the production of this book and they still went beyond our expectations. The deluxe version comes in this case resembling the Sketchtravel wood case. It is made out of a nicely done card stock box. It sure looks like a real wood box but better. It really feels nice but it is not heavy like the real wood box.(good for international shipping)
And then what's amazing about it is the actual sketchbook part. They made it look almost identical to the original. Even with the paper cuts and pop up aspect. It doesn't even have all the publisher's info and other information. The book is that sketchbook!
As a result, there is the special separate booklet with all the text and other images in it. We have never seen anything like this.
"I'm sure the normal edition will look amazing but this deluxe edition is probably worth the price if you want to experience our 5 year journey."
The deluxe edition also comes with a special print of Nicolas de Crecy's page.
