AA16 is Gerber 7. The scarcity index runs from 1 (very common) to 11 (non-existent). 7 is called scarce, estimated at the time of publication as 21 to 50 extant. It is commonly believed now that those estimated extant numbers were low, with the Internet having made it easier to locate books. However, the scarcity index is still valued as a rule of thumb, not applicable in all cases, for scarcity of books relative to each other.

AC1 is a Gerber 7, and Tec 27 is a Gerber 6.

Off-topic, but my wife is out of the country at the moment and I am considering a large purchase. My suggestion if the wife gets demanding is to send her on vacation.

A Mad Ming cover set would be a fun short one to chase.

I think I see some of my old copies in there. Nice!

This darn basement remodel is sucking my funds at the wrong time. My only hope is finding an Action 1 in a wall cavity.

Glorious photo!

Yeah, that one has a neat vibe to it.
