Depends on the publisher, but I'd say in many cases they're as rare if not more rare than the lettered (especially if the lettered runs 52 copies).

Could you post a Top Ten List of all of your works, ranked solely by rarity? (English language only for now, although I would love to have a copy of the Latvian First Edition of "The Tomb"). Also, I have a question about my PC of "The Barrens" Red Edition. I know there were 26 lettered and 250 numbered, but how many PC? Are PCs more or less rare than the others? (Actually, that's two questions).
After reading your post, I thought there was a typo. A "Red" Barrens? I've got a White Barrens. (And, yes, the pun was intentional; they always are) So, I checked back to your picture and wow, it was red! Is it also sort of "puffy"?

Yes, and it's darker red than comes across in the photo, sort of a "bloody red Barrens".
I think the lettered are red and the numbered are white.

I'm already tracking down all known owners of this rare tome (with the assistance of my good friends Dr. Evil, Prof. Moriarty, Dr. Fu Manchu, Lex Luthor, Tony Soprano, Snidely Whiplash, Vlad IV (Prince of Wallachia), and Blofeld). Any "killing", "whacking" (as Tony prefers), impaling or other unfortunate consequences visited upon these individuals by my associates is without my prior knowledge or approval. So who wants to sell?

Thanks for the photos Paul. I recall it was one of the UK heads of H&S that had the books made up so there's a chance one may materialise on these shores - the games afoot!!

I've got Yojimbo. Toshiro Mifune is one of my favorite actors. You're right--it's a great movie (and very funny in its own way, as are A fistful of Dollars and Last Man Standing).
