There’s exclusive, and then there’s extra exclusive.
Denny Laine’s widow Elizabeth Hines has posted to Instagram images of an even more limited edition of the new book, Wings: The Story of a Band On The Run, signed and sent to her by Paul McCartney.

The book and its contents are very similar to the limited and expensive edition reported here, but this is a super special version (number 17 of just 25 copies), allocated to McCartney as author to send out to significant people.

It has its own unique signature page with hand-written details of just how limited it is.

The book comes in a deluxe cloth case featuring screen printing and includes a 24-page full-colour bound-in booklet of Wings-era album and singles cover artwork, an enamel Wings pin and blue and white embroidered patch, and a uniquely bound copy of the book itself:

There is also an exclusive transparent blue vinyl 1 LP of Wings: The Definitive Collection with custom labels:

How special is that?
It’s really nice to see that Denny’s family have received this from Paul and MPL, and that such things exist alongside the versions that you and I have access to.
That’s it – I’m out!
But seriously, given the pattern of roughly two-year’s spacing between Paul’s editions like this, any one of them could easily be his last. It’s nice to think that people on his “special” list would have this if that turned out to be the case.

Hi Michael, great to hear from you and I hope you are well.
Yes, to get one of these you’d have to be on a very short, very exclusive list of Paul’s best mates!
There is of course the slightly more approachable commercial “super deluxe”: https://beatlesblogger.com/2025/10/03/wings-book-super-deluxe-edition-announced/
I’m sure this would look great alongside your other McCartney limited editions! 🙂

I’m a little embarrassed to say – and I’m sure this won’t surprise you – that UPS are currently trying to catch me at home in order to deliver my copy(!)
