The next Rolling Stones project will definitely cost fans more money that the usual concert ticket. The iconic band is set to release a boxed collector's edition of a coffee table book aptly titled "The Rolling Stones."

The coffee table book features the band's hundreds of famous and also never-been-seen photographs. Fans will definitely find this the perfect Christmas gift, a fitting must-have memorabilia, indeed.

Publisher Taschen revealed Monday that band members Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ron Wood and Charlie Watts have laid out their signatures on each of the 1,150 books.

At $5,000, the coffee table book is every rare collector's coveted piece. Meanwhile, the regular edition, which comes without a signature and is available at a smaller size, may be purchased at $150 a copy.

A statement issued through Taschen reveal that Jagger wants fans to have a book that will make them reminisce the "many magical moments" of the band. Richards, meanwhile, called the book a "roller coaster" ride through the band's half a century of history.

The publisher announced that the 500-page plus book offers readers an "unprecedented access to the Rolling Stones' own archives in New York and London and adds an equally extraordinary, more private side to their story."

The band is busy with their road tour in Australia. Their playing dates were initially rescheduled after Jagger's partner L'Wren Scott passed away early this year.
