The Elliott Bay Book Company
Maiden Voyage First Edition Program

Established in September 2002, our Maiden Voyage Program has been bringing undiscovered first-edition authors to avid readers and collectors throughout the year.
Joining the program means that we will send you, a friend or family member, a hardcover first edition of an author's debut novel, six times a year.
This is the perfect gift for bibliophiles, introducing them to the best emerging new authors, while building a library of fine first editions from first time novelists. Our Maiden Voyage Program is a gift that keeps on giving throughout the year!
$150 covers full membership and shipping costs.
If you have any questions, please contact Holly at hmyers@elliottbaybook.com or by phone at 1-800-962-5311.
