Reassessing Gerber "8" Designation - Crime and Justice #25

2 posts in this topic

There has been much discussion in these threads about re-evaluating Gerber scarcity designations. Obviously 1989, when Gerber published his books, and 2008 are vastly different times, particularly due to the evolution of the Internet.

 

I, and others, are going to make a concerted effort to reassess the ratings and see how they have held up over the years. Once I compile all the information I will, at some later date, publish it in one compendium.

 

In separate threads I will list a specific book and solicit information about that book only. Please keep your postings to the specific book at issue.

 

If you own a copy of the book, please either indicate so or - even better - post an image of it.

 

If you know of a copy for sale somewhere, please indicate that as well.

 

If you know of someone who owns a copy, or can offer some observations on how often you have seen a copy in either someone's collection or for sale, please do contribute that information.

 

Thanks in advance for your assistance!!! (thumbs u

 

This book was recently mentioned in one of the other Gerber discussion threads as it present something of an anomaly. Gerber lists the book as an "8", but both he and Overstreet actually note they question whether it exists! Well, then why would it be given an "8" designation instead of an "11"? Or a "10" or a "9"? Makes little sense to me. :screwy: Nevertheless, a difficult book to find.
