(1) $25 620 which is being covered by the WA Museum, not through Welcome Walls registration fees. This book will be available for purchase through the WA Museum shops and through mail order and pre-publication offer.
We Came By Sea should not be confused with the Welcome Walls presentation booklet which is being provided free to each final stage Welcome Wall registrant.
(2) The initial print run for We Came by Sea is 2,000 copies.
(3) Dependant on retail sales, the Museum is anticipating an income of over $50 000.
