Questions & Comments

When I came upon this book, I knew I had found a treasure... but little did I know until I had done the research. A similar volume is currently listed at Powells Books for $200, slightly more careworn.

Rather than Ebay, I thought I would offer it to the Listia community to which I am so proud to be a member. Good luck bidding.

Nice EPHOuse! This is a wonderful book that a lot of folks our age remember fondly. I remember I read it and never really got it ... maybe I should read again! But I mostly liked SciFi ...

I think someone caught your drift.

Nice haircut. Indeed, I read it when I was about 14....and didn't get it. Later, when I was about 17, I read The Little Prince, and I got it....it made me laugh and cry. I'm sure a good reread is in order, but not this book.The pages haven't even been folded back. Except for the original owners name under the DJ flap, it is pristine...great condition for a forty yr.-old book...especially one so small....they seem to have shorter lifespans.

I can't believe no one else is bidding on this. If you don't get more bids I want you to keep it, maybe list it again in the future when there's more interest in collectible books. You also could list it on Amazon if you wanted to.

Ah, natahoa, you are such a good friend. You list it on Amazon. I will tell you the story of how I obtained it later. It's a hoot....worth 100 credits itself.
