Hmmm yes, those gorgeous sketches... Probably the gold lettering will look better with the white background though. I'm sure it will be lovely on the actual product.
Do you remember the booklets that accompanied the Complete Recordings versions of the LotR soundtracks? They were written by Doug Adams, and I guess you could describe the book as a Very Extended Edition of those booklets - with tons more additional content. :) The very brief description from one of Doug's other recent entries about the book:
What I can tell you is that we have a 416-page hardcover book packed with music examples, score pages, film stills and artwork from John Howe and Alan Lee. Living in the back cover is a 23-track CD featuring unused, alternate, and early-draft music from FOTR, TTT, and ROTK ... and even a little discussion with Howard Shore and myself. The book and CD will be released this fall in a single package available worldwide.
