Well, why not? We're among friends. I haven't seen any reference to this recently, so I'll assume this is a first. Sorry if I'm repeating something. A buddy of mine told me today that Schwing's book on the Superposed has gone out of print and prices have gone up drastically. He saw a copy at a gun show last week at $200. I searched the web just now and Amazon lists it at $225. Other sites range up to $595. Amazon UK lists it at 325 pounds sterling (no symbol on my keyboard) which today is about $625 US. If you see one in a book store at the old price, BUY IT. Ian, stop making notes in your copy.

A year ago Christmas, I bought a copy off ebay for "buy it now $25" from a local Calif bookstore. It's about as new as it could be. They obviously didn't know what they had. I saw other sellers of the book asking near $200 at the time.

I've been trying to buy another copy for less than $100. No luck.

Choke, sputter, cough!!!!!
I got a "like new" eBay copy several years ago (for cheap) and gifted it to my partner. He whetted my Superposed appetite in 1972 with his "brought back from Germany Rod & Gun club" example.
Haven't really looked for any more on eBay, and I don't think I'll bother now.
Dave, I'll keep marking up my Super book, and the others too - can't get it out of my blood.
Ordered my copy of the new LC Smith book early on but don't have it yet- it's supposed to be a total heart-stopper. Just imagine what those books are going to be worth when the presses shut down.
Supply and Demand - WOW!!

Yeah, that LC Houchins deluxe edition is now not the most expensive book on my shelf.
