On the other hand, if you ever see a hardback copy of Catcher in the Rye with Salinger's photo on the back, you're gonna want to obtain that book by any means necessary. I still can't help myself from checking the copies at Half-Price Books whenever I see one.

Hieronymous Alloy posted:Yeah, unfortunately "first book club editions" are generally worthless. They're actually kindof a fun entry-level into book collecting in that regard, if you aren't too concerned about dollar value and just want to own a neat book. I never can justify the hobby to myself at all -- I know full well that I will never sell any of these books, but their market value is always of interest to me. Same with baseball cards. I guess if my son wants to sell them after I die, releasing my soul into the warp at last, that would be okay.
