169.3Still looking for these...NATASH::HYATTSun Jan 31 1988 10:4357
I'm *still* searching for the following 1st Editions to finish off some 
collections.  Condition is no big deal as long as it isn't falling apart,
isn't a library copy, has a dust jacket, and doesn't have any missing pages.

Please contact me if you or someone else you know (friend, bookstore, 
huckster, etc) have something on my wish list.

Thanks, 

Mike

169.5Easton Press Signed First EditionsFRAGLE::MACNEALBig MacTue Aug 02 1988 12:247
    The Easton Press in Connecticut will be issuing selected first editions
    on a subscription basis.  There is another note in here with their
    address.  The books are leather bound with 22 kt. gold trim.  In
    addition, they are personally signed by the author.  The first in the
    series is Asimov's "Prelude to Foundation".  The next is advertised as
    a collection of short stories from Harlan Ellison.  A new book by Anne
    McCaffrey is scheduled to be included at some point.

    re:.4
    
    There is no hardcover edition of SUNDIVER, unless there's one
    from the SF Book Club. STARTIDE RISING had a hardcover edition
    (well after the paperback) from a small press, Phantasia, but
    it was relatively limited.
