The 2007 Browncoat Cruise was a unique vacation/convention designed to allow fans of Firefly and Serenity to enjoy each other’s company in a cruise ship environment. Fans were able to get up-close-and-personal with an array of celebrity guests, including actor Ron Glass. Ron is beloved in the Firefly ‘verse as the enigmatic Shepherd Book – a preacher equally at home with The Good Book and a right hook!
Kids Need to Read Charity Auctions offers you two mementos from this landmark event. First, an 8X10 full-color photo of Shepherd Book on Firefly, signed by Ron Glass. And second, an official Browncoat Cruise Souvenir Program signed by Brian Wiser, producer of Done the Impossible and one of the cruise directors. Brian also designed, printed and made all the programs himself! This 30+ page, full color booklet includes bios of the guests, ads from your favorite Firefly/Serenity sources, and cover art by artist Adam Levermore-Rich (Lexigeek).
