The Jedi Path book presentation box
Posted by Gavin Lucas, 14 June 2011, 15:50 Permalink Comments (323)
Its silver vault doors sport an embossed image of two moons setting over the rounded edge of a nearby planet and two hands clutching a lightsabre... Press the button on the bottom and, in a wash of blue light and sound effects, the doors slowly open and the book within rises on a platform. Yes, folks it's the packaging for The Jedi Path, a limited edition book, created collaboratively by print production company Imago, publisher becker&mayer! and, of course, Lucasfilm.
"The biggest challenge for us was that George Lucas (no relation to CR's Gavin) did not want the opening mechanism to be activated electronically," explains John Hine at Imago. "The only electronics present are to power the blue lights on the book platform and the sound effects that are generated on opening," he adds. "The internal mechanism operates entirely through springs and levers - the challenge being, to get a smooth action, with both left and right drawers consistently opening in unison and at such a speed to be fully opened before the book is revealed on its raised platform. This fine tuning took many rounds and tweaks to the engineering, before the required brief was realised & satisfied. Further use of Imago's creative experience was to produce the metallic look of the injection moulded vault and the authentic, time worn manual contained within."
The book itself is no simple production. The very premise for the book is explained on the belly band that wraps the vault when you buy it: "This venerable text. crafted by the ancient Jedi Masters, has educated and enlightened generations of Jedi. Through wars and rebellion, a single copy has survived, annotated by those who have held it, studied it, and lived its secrets. It is now passed on to you."
It sports an embossed, pseudo leather cover that's soft to the touch, there are hand torn pages and no fewer than eight removable "artifacts" within the pages that include a coin-like charm, a material patch and even a drink-stained napkin. The printed text is also "annotated" with handwritten notes by the book's supposed previous owners, each of whom thankfully happens to have their own distinctive handwriting. Here are a few shots of the book...
The book has been available in the US for a few months, but we're told the publishers are finally allowed to talk about it to press in the UK.
Above, the vault complete with belly band, as packaged. As you might expect from a Lucasfilm production, the book has an "official trailer"...
And also check out this excited appraisal of the book by a Star Wars fan:

My favourite would be "Do, or do not - there is no 'try'", which is obviously the best Star Wars quote of all time.
Plus it's my birthday on Friday, and being a huge Star Wars fan this would be the best birthday present ever.
You will award the book to me. *waves hand in Jedi-Mind-Trick fashion*

This is the 'line' that Obi-Wan thinks to himself as he smiles at Luke just before Darth Vader kills him. As any Jedi knows, it is not what he says for the benefit of others but what he believes inside that truly matters.

Look, I can't get involved. I've got work to do. It's not that I like the Empire; I hate it, but there's nothing I can do about it right now... It's all such a long way from here.
Luke could have done with a quick read of the book at this point.

"Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size do you? As well you should *not*! For my ally is the Force and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us ... and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you. Here, between you, me, the tree, the rock… everywhere! Even between the land and the ship."
- Yoda, Jedi Master
PS - Please notice - not a single mention of midichlorians _anywhere_.

This really appeals to me, wish Lucas had spent a little more time on the mythology of the Jedi in his prequels instead of making three extended adverts for new toy ranges!
