The Signed Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is nearly sold out status.  There were only a few sets remaining as of 8/29/2001.  Since Douglass Adams is now deceased, there will never be another signed printing of this Classic series.  Order you set now before they are sold out.

One word of caution on Easton Press volumes.  It has become increasingly prevalent with new series that Easton Press releases to see people selling these volumes on eBay at extremely inflated prices.  The Signed Masterpieces of Horror was just released and is currently available from Easton Press.  However, you will find people attempting to sell a single volume in this series for the same price as you could obtain both volumes directly from Easton Press.  This is also occurring with the J.R.R. Tolkien, Signed Anne Rice, and Winnie the Pooh collections along with "A Clockwork Orange".  It is not uncommon to see these collections go for 3 - 5 times what you would pay had you simply picked up the phone and ordered them from Easton Press.  I have witnessed the Anne Rice Signed set sell for in excess of $750 on eBay when you could purchase it for a fraction of that amount.  Ordering in stock volumes from Easton Press not only saves you money, but you get their guarantee to replace a volume or issue a refund in the event the volumes arrive in other than perfect condition.  I strongly encourage everyone purchasing Easton Press volumes to do their research first.  There is no such thing as a "once in a lifetime" event.  Sooner or later every volume Easton Press ever made will become available on the market.  Easton Press can be reached at 1-800-367-4534.

Many people have been asking about the Nelson Mandela signed volume.  It is very important to note that this volume is NOT a first edition.  This means Easton Press can continue to publish the volume as long as Mr. Mandela is willing to sign it.  Easton Press is currently out of stock on this volume, but more are being published right now and will soon become available.  This volume will not truly become out of print until after the passing of Mr. Mandela.  I urge caution on this volume through the sellers on eBay.  I have been watching several sellers on eBay offering many of this volume at prices significantly above Easton Press' issue price.  You can call Easton Press right now and be placed on the waiting list for the when they become available again.  Anyone claiming that this is an out of print volume is either misinformed or misrepresenting the true status of this volume.

I just received a letter from the Easton Press that stated they would be issuing several volumes I had previously elected to not receive in the 100 Greatest Books series and that it may be 4 years or more before those volumes come back around and are available again.  The volumes noted are as follows:

• The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes
• The Divine Comedy
• Don Quixote
• Fathers and Sons>
• Livy's History of Early Rome
• Robinson Crusoe
• The Way of All Flesh

If you are looking to sell your collection for whatever reason, full or partial, contact me to discuss terms and payment schedules.
