Lately, Bill Sniffin’s coffee table books about Wyoming have been selling to unusual customers: First, a school district bought 140 books (Wyoming at 125) to give to its students in younger grades wanting to learn about Wyoming history. This book is crammed with photos, maps, flags, and stories about the state starting with dinosaurs and leading up the present.
Sniffin’s first coffee table book (Wyoming’s 7 Greatest Natural Wonders) recent saw its purchase by several businesses wanting to promote itself to its best customers. The sale of 100 to 200 books at a time worked well. It is possible to purchase special promotional stickers to put on the covers, as well.
Over 34,000 copies of Bill Sniffin’s Wyoming-themed coffee table books have been sold over the past eight years. One edition is sold out but the two other books are available for purchase.
