Wow! And that one is even signed!
Somewhere there is one traveling around with all kinds of signatures in it...

Wow. Who would've thought the seller would resurface after so many years had passed?

I emailed him earlier today, so he added that it was signed by Charlie.

The seller amended his listing after I inquired as to who signed the book.

The best I can determine is he is referring to the photo on page 120 which appears to be a reproduced signed photo of Charlie and Beal.

Hopefully Beal can shed some light...

Not to be the one working the firehose, but I wonder if these books have as much value outside the OFC? I purchased my hard cover version about five years ago off the Bay and I think I paid $18. When I bought my Book Elite a year or two later, the seller offered to throw his book into the deal, but I told him to keep it since I already had one. I don't know anything about the cost/benefit structure of boutique book publishing, but I'd be curious considering how much apparent interest there is in these books.

I am sure that this is a correct observation.
Kinda like the few Academy guitars we keep trading amongst ourselves.
