CHRONICLES - VOLUME ONE, by Bob Dylan

     CHRONICLES, VOLUME ONE is a memoir written by Bob Dylan. The book was published on October 5, 2004, by Simon & Schuster.
     The book covers three selected points from Dylan's long career: 1961, 1970, and 1989, while he was writing and recording BOB DYLAN, NEW MORNING and OH MERCY, respectively. CHRONICLES is allegedly the first part of a planned 3-volume collection.
     The book spent 19 weeks on the New York Times best-seller list for hardcover nonfiction books. CHRONICLES, VOLUME ONE was one of five finalists for the National Book Critics Circle Award in the Biography/Autobiography category for the 2004 publishing year.

     CHRONICLES, VOLUME ONE has -so far- been translated into Arabic, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Farsi, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Icelandic, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish and Turkish (two translations).

     Below: When CHRONICLES VOLUME ONE came out in paperback in 2005, the UK publishers produced a publicity pack consisting of a card folder (about LP size) with a number of items slipped into the pocket of the card folder.
These included: (1) a poster, (2) details of the publicity campaign and (3) a copy of the book cover, not yet folded around a book.
     In the publicity pack shown, there was also a press release about SCRAPBOOK and a small cellophane envelope but it is not certain that these originally came with the publicity pack. The cellophane envelope contained : (1) a small brochure about the book, (2) a CHRONICLES sticker, and (3) a fake guitar pick with mention of Dylan and "Chronicles".

    Thank you  to Ian Woodward for the photos and information.
