Jimmy Seed’s Scrapbooks

I’ve created a photographic replica of one of Jimmy Seed’s cartoon scrapbooks (with a couple of additional cartoon added at the end, including one of a 1920s 3rd Division title winning Charlton team drawn by Jos Walker.)
This is only a prototype at this stage and I’m expecting to need to make a couple of technical alterations after checking it when it arrives next week. 👍

I've now updated the book with two extra pages featuring a 1926 newspaper article about a reporter's visit to the Seed family's home where he was shown Jimmy's art studio and his medal collection.

I've made the book primarily to show to potential publishers, but if interest isn't forthcoming I could get more copies manufactured (vanity publishing!) if there's any interest.
The manufacturing cost of these books is around £50 per unit, but that comes down using discount codes, and with 'bulk' ordering.
The price would depend on the level of interest. I get a reduction if I get 10 or more manufactured (c. £29 a copy), and a further break if I get 50 or more made (c. £25 a copy).
I imagine, bearing in mind the very limited numbers, they might be reasonably 'collectable'.
Please let me know if you may potentially be interested.
