I realize that the above quote is applicable only to the Gauntlet edition of The Haunted Air, but I was wondering if the "regular" hardback edition of The Haunted Air (the Forge/Tom Doherty Associates edition) also commands some sort of premium price in the used market?

It went through 3 printings, so there are plenty of copies out there.

When it comes to "The Haunted Air" I think the regular edition is the way I'll go for now. You were right about the end papers, they are very nice looking.

Hrmm... The pic I took doesn't do it justice.

Wow, they look amazing.

I'd say The Tomb, from Whispers Press (signed limited) is the most important RJ book out there.

I just got the Gauntlet edition of "Rakoshi" in the mail today. It's a great looking book. I got #816.

Borderlands Press? That's a beautiful set.

Looks to be a case of short-supply investor craze, like the upper classes madly purchasing Tulips (1637) or middle-class america and Tyco's Beanie Babies in the 1990's.

You never know when something seemingly ordinary will get assigned an instant collector value, and then all it takes is a relatively small number of folks buying up and hording said stock to create a perceived demand, which morphs into a real one.

That, and THE HAUNTED AIR is a Great Book!

Woops, I meant Borderlands.

I read somewhere that their Adversary Cyle editions are half price now.

They are. The recession has hit the small presses hard.

I already have a copy of every BP fpw limited. Black Wind is my favorite.
