I picked this up the other day. 1931 Photoplay edition of Frankenstein. Dust jacket has a few issues (obviously) but sometimes ANY dust jacket is acceptable. I'm thrilled to have it in spite of the...

What is sad is that I suspect the seller did pay $5800 at The Art of Music in Las Vegas. I have been in that store and others like it and find their prices ridiculous. He got taken in a big way,...

Yes. So essentially you would be buying the letter for $900 and I think that is too high.

If you look at the link you posted it looks like copyrighted in 1897 then renewed in 1921.
Date(s): 1921, c1897[/QUOTE]

Doubleday Page published that book a few times over several years. The...

The letter is probably legit. The book is not even close to a first edition. Going from memory (I'll look it up later) it is from 1928. Over 30 years after the first edition in 1897. The book can...

Nice article. Thanks! I especially liked this quote:

"Remember my mantra: Buy the very best, stretch to buy it. It means if you can’t afford to buy it, buy it anyway.”

Congratulations! I've seen some S/L's with Rackham's signature but I don't think I have ever seen his signature in a trade edition. And the little drawing is a real bonus!

Nice copy of I AM LEGEND! Although the later hardcover sells for a lot more that paperback, as you know, is the true first edition. That's the one I have in my collection.

They are made by Hale and called Traditional Barrister Bookcases. You buy individual units and you can stack and arrange them to suit your needs.

Here is one link but they are sold through many...

I am in the minority (at least I think I am) in that I think Red Dragon by Thomas Harris is a better book than Silence of the Lambs. I put Red Dragon in my (ever evolving) top 10 books that I have...

I have one and I like it a lot. Not everyone loves Rick Berry's art though. Some paintings in this edition are fantastic, IMO. Others I don't really get but he is definitely very talented. At $276 it...

Speaking of the Folio edition here is something I came across on eBay about a year and a half ago. I think I have posted these pictures before (maybe in this thread?). Anyway it is a special edition...

I think it is a very nice production. Abigail Rorer did eight or nine illustrations for the book (published in 2008, I think) and they are well done.

As far as I know, yes. That particular edition is special to me. I ordered a copy at my local drugstore in 1960 or so. They had a nice paperback rack and said they could order a copy of Dracula for...

Two of my favorite editions. Published in 2001 by the Colorado Ballet to commemorate their performance of this ballet in their 41st season. The black copy on the left is one of 20 copies and the red...

I just took these. The shelves (like most of my collection right now) are poorly tended. I am running out of shelf space and now just place newer acquisitions on top of other books. I need to work on...

I've been collecting various editions of Dracula for a long time and also books related to Dracula. Here is an old and fragile item that I just received yesterday. It is a small paperback titled...

Fantastic letter, Paul! I'm sure it is one of your prized possessions.

Michaël, you were much more advanced at that age than I was. I think at age ten all I wanted to read was baseball stories. I read the Bronc Burnett series and (I think) the Chip Hilton series....

I've never read Replay. Sounds interesting. I'll look for it. Thanks!
