Days of our Lives' 50th anniversary is shaping up to be a truly golden event. Not only is the soap opera pulling out all the stops storyline-wise, NBC's longest-running series is making its big moment special off-screen, as well. The soap opera has announced the release of a commemorative 50th anniversary coffee table photo book as well as a national book tour that will bring the show's cast directly to fans.
Written by the show's executive producer, Greg Meng, Days of our Lives: 50 Years is an in-depth, photographic journey of the Emmy-winning soap opera. Celebrating five decades of being on the air, the book showcases new and exciting views of the iconic series via rare black-and-white historical images and a wealth of full color photos that highlight iconic characters and beloved stories.
"As a longtime member of the Corday Productions family, it is a privilege to present this memory book," says Meng of the exciting new collector's item, which is available now for pre-order and will be available for purchase in book stores nationwide starting Tuesday, October 27. "Days of our Lives: 50 Years is a collection of rare photos providing a big picture view of the show's history while reflecting the heart and soul of the show through some of the beloved and iconic stories during the first 50 years.
