The Rolling Stones have posted a teaser for "The Rolling Stones: 50," a coffee table book celebrating the group's golden anniversary. The 352-page book will be published on July 12 -- the actual 50th anniversary of the Stones' first gig, at London's Marquee club -- and feature more than 700 images as well as in-depth interviews with band members past and present. The Stones posted a message about the book, saying that "This is our story of fifty fantastic years. We started out as a blues band playing the clubs and more recently we've filled the largest stadiums in the world with the kind of show that none of us could have imagined all those years ago. Curated by us, it features the very best photographs and ephemera from and beyond our archives." The video shows the book being produced at a printing plant in Shenzen, China, and being shipped to the offices of Thames & Hudson Books in London while "All Down the Line" plays.
