  1. I was being facetious. More about the price of the book itself being so high. $15 to ship a high dollar slab like this one is actually fairly reasonable to me. Assuming it's properly packed, insured, has tracking and all that. Not just slapping a half dozen forever stamps on the front of a slab and praying.
  2. Right? I hate feeling like I'm being taken advantage of with high shipping.
  3. Same book, same serial number. Different seller, different price. Gotta love Ebay.
  4. I guess if I wanted to pick a few runner up pedigrees just for fun, I would think about the Central Valley, Hawkeye and Vancouver collections. I understand they all have great freshness and pages.
  5. I would 100% buy a conserved book, particularly a pedigree. I could very well be wrong, but I would assume a conserved book would keep its pedigree designation just as restored books do.
  6. Lemmings don't actually jump off cliffs. That was made up by Disney. https://www.adfg.alaska.gov/index.cfm?adfg=wildlifenews.view_article&articles_id=56#:~:text=Lemmings do not commit,how many people believe it.
  7. Very sad news. I always enjoyed when he shared books from his collection and the stories that went with them.
  8. I was very lucky to get this from a fellow boardie many years ago. One of my favorite books. This one is the Cosmic Aeroplane copy.
  9. Oh, I don't know. I thought it was just right.
  10. Hard to believe, but this is my last pick up off the board. From Mr. Bedrock in 2017.
  11. Maybe they feel the date marks make them easy enough to identify. It may be a combination of factors. What is the PQ like on them in general?
  12. Such nice books. I always like to see the early ones.
  13. I'm going to have to go to this show. Just moved to the area and it looks like fun.
  14. Don't take my word for it. All I have are a Detroit Trolley and a Cosmic Aeroplane.
