4. SOUNDBITE (English) Sunday Steinkirchner, B&B Rare Books:
“I'm the chair of the New York Antiquarian Book Fair, and which is really exciting. I've been on the committee for seven years, so I've been working up towards this. And two years ago I became the chair, and it's been really fun to put this together because we have 198 exhibitors. It's been really wonderful to have everyone from all over the world. And honestly, the best material comes out, the best booksellers come out for this, and obviously it's been great for the customers because everything comes into one place, one time of year.”
5. Various of Nirvana memorabilia
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Sunday Steinkirchner, B&B Rare Books:
“We have a whole collection of Nirvana posters, mini posters and fliers, and we have a ‘Nevermind’ album that's inscribed by Robert Fisher, who is the art director, and he explains in the inscription, how they came up with the idea for the baby chasing the fishhook in the pool.”
7. Push in on Nirvana “Nevermind” covers with inscription
8. Pan of alternate "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" cover and “Lovely Rita” lyrics
9. “Lovely Rita” lyrics
10. SOUNDBITE (English) Alex Hime, Biblioctopus Rare Books:
“These are the original handwritten lyrics to the song ‘Lovely Rita (Meter Maid)” by Paul McCartney. It's an early draft, so there's multiple corrections and changes, and it varies greatly from the final album version."
11. Alternate "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" cover and “Lovely Rita” lyrics
12. SOUNDBITE (English) Alex Hime, Biblioctopus Rare Books:
(Reporter: The album cover is not the one we're used to seeing.)
“No, there's a few extra people on there that they couldn't get the copyright releases on for their final release.”
13. Pan of album cover
14. SOUNDBITE (English) Alex Hime, Biblioctopus Rare Books:
(Reporter: How much would something like this go for?)
“This is priced at $650,000.”
15. Pan of Bruce Springsteen handwritten “State Trooper” lyrics
16. SOUNDBITE (English) Alex Hime, Biblioctopus Rare Books:
“I think any time the musician is considered a great writer, the lyrics are going to be more valuable. So, Lennon, McCartney, Bob Dylan, Springsteen, any of those guys, Leonard Cohen are all going to be more valuable than people that are less known for their lyrics.”

18. SOUNDBITE (English) Simon Finch, and Andrew Taylor, Voewood Rare Books:
Andrew Taylor: “Paul didn't like the sort of the drug references the mushrooms in there. And he thought people might think, well, this is a little bit too radical. So they moved back from this. They decided not to go with it, but it is essentially the original idea for the first concept album, which I guess is what Sgt. Pepper is.”
Simon Finch: “And it's inscribed by Ringo Starr as Billy Shears, which was his alter ego in Sgt. Pepper, which is apparently the only time that he was actually signed as Billy Shears.”
19. Sgt. Pepper alternate gatefold image
20. Push in on original BAFTA award
21. Various of Andrew Taylor holding BAFTA Awards
22. SOUNDBITE (English) Simon Finch, and Andrew Taylor, Voewood Rare Books:
Andrew Taylor: “This comes from the foundry, which made the BAFTAs for the first 20 years. And so this is the cast from which all the subsequent BAFTAs were made.”
