Library Book
Probably a silly question, but ... I checked a book out of the library (Blood Dance by Joe R. Lansdale, if you absolutely must know) that shows an original price tag of $400.00 on the rear dust cover. In the front , it is signed by the author and has a number indicating it is one of some 1000 limited and numbered copies. Apparently there are some 18 'lettered copies' around somewhere also, but I don't know what that means. So, my question (aside from whatever moral issues may be invoved) is whether this book might in fact have a value of $400.00 or, more likely, it's only a library book for God's sake, get serious!

"$400.00? What a rip-off! I'll sign it for just $200.00, just for you." |
