Great British Library
The Great British Library holds over 45 million books, however over half of them are weekly prescriptions to those magazines where you get part of a ship every week. The subscription started in 1967, and the uncompleted ship is now life-size. The Publisher have refused to confirm the actual number of issues planned, although the price has risen from 2d to over £56,000 per issue, often issuing hundreds of different leaflet sized editions (often re-prints) in under an hour. The British Library are said to be "extremely pleased" with the progress of the ship and plan to exhibit it.
