Just given how tough the series is (especially 2 &3) it'll be interesting to see how much an affect on the hammer price it will have. Tough book, hard to say - brittleness is a big no-no for me, so not bidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sagii Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 @porcupine48 It's there Jimmers, 'Earshaw' is the seller. He frequently has some choice material. @sacentaur Hey, we all have our collection criteria. Great books MLJ's you've been posting by the way .

Sqeggs Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 For what it's worth, I sent him a question a few days ago about whether the cover was brittle. I received no response, but he did add more pictures. Seems lame to me for a veteran seller to dodge the issue of brittleness. sacentaur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sqeggs Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 He got in a nice collection of Fawcetts a couple of years ago and had them graded, so it's not that he's so old school that he never sends anything in to get graded. I have a suspicion that he didn't send this book in because he was pretty sure what the result would be. sacentaur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porcupine48 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Gang...could one of you post a link please?I've tried searching a tonne of times,even by seller,and I STILL can't find it.What started out as curious interest to watch is now just driving me bananas. I don't know if it's because i'm in Canada or what,but it just wont appear for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing if it had been put out at a $350 BIN it would still be sitting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
