I can’t stop looking at the fanny on Lesbo Beach! I srsly believe these are smart investments.

She’s peddling magazines — and Passion! Love it.

I try to do the same. Hey, wait a minute, are you getting the sense that I’m overpaying??

This is good advice and I agree. Timely too, as I’m still lurking around your current sales thread. Some nice books there!

My hunch is that you won’t regret it. Take it from the rookie!

What is a good way to show/store PBs? As I begin to collect I want to have them out — to be seen. But to also be protected.

Please add this to my pile.

Take please.

Take please.

My copy of this price guide arrived yesterday — Jimjum’s recommendation. Should I order this one too?

Want list updated.

Those Tolkiens. Drool.

Lowell! I ain’t got the words.

It’s now in my Audible library. Several murders in a corrupt Montana mining town… Lots of good street cred on this one.

I’ve just started a want list. From books that I read in college seminars to classic old movies. To include some sci-fi and historical themes I’ve seen here. I’m sure some of the books I’ll be hunting for are not cheap. This thread has lit a fire!

I’d jump on the Maltese Falcon (without looking anywhere else — how rare is it?). I’ve watched the movie a dozen times. edit: And it looks to be in nice condition!

This is a timely thread because I am really new to the PB hobby. I’m more interested in first editions — the more rarity the more interest. Anything that is rare, and that has a coolness factor or historical significance, garners my attention. And I love to read. Books and ideas in them hold special value to me. I won’t be reading any first edition purchases because I am not gentle enough. I hope to find either a beater to read or find it on Audible or Spotify. I really like the historical books — Natzi’s / KKK hoods / books with a “banned” nature — not because I believe in their outlandish ideas, but because we need to remember the history. No whitewashing or blurring truth. Those books, in first editions, get my interest. I also like the tough-guy detective scene. Philip Marlowe and company. The PB’s with beautiful, scantily-clad women are fun to see on the boards, and I’d pick up the more rare, tasteful covers, but I need to pass on having my kids discover a stack of naughty ladies of the night laying around! Of course, I may look back on this post and realize my interests have changed. These are my initial interests — guttural attractions. The boardies have been a great help, so far. Surfing Alien’s knowledge and willingness to help has been great! Same with JimJum12.

Next up in the Audible cue:

I’ve been humming this tune ever since I listened to this yesterday. I can’t get it out of my head!

Really like the sound of no public whiffing. Rule #1: Ask here first. Got it. And it makes sense!

Just so we are clear — I did not make this purchase! I guess I was wondering where yall go to make such purchases? Part of the learning curve — the true and sacred advice.

Done.

Now I see the madness. The fun. Seeds are planted for that one rare book — those awesome rarity of books and nostalgia. Some with pretty women whose boobs point straight up and they look so nice. Some with gangsters — because we know crime is a part of it all. Plant the seeds, boys. And I shall do my part to secure what I can!

Yeasss!!
