Up for sale is a terrific collectible book documenting - primarily in photos - the wild and imaginative celebrations that took place in New Orleans, Louisiana in the weeks leading up to and following the football New Orleans Saints Superbowl XLIV victory on February 7, 2010, that largely coincided with the traditional Mardi Gras season.  (PLEASE NOTE:  The book references the football game but is not primarily about the game itself.  It is about the pre- and post-game celebrations.)
