Now you need to do is win :). Still too early to determine what this will go for. I know I could not find one for sale when searching the web. I did find lots of new paperback copies, but the not the original hard cover.

Yeah, that's very interesting. I love old books like these :)

No, but some nonfiction books. I own an extrememly rare book: Magica Sexualis with Robert Horton's signature on the inside front cover. It is numbered 650 and only 3500 were printed. I would never list this book here.
