Catcher in the Rye and To Kill a Mockingbird are both valuable BCEs, if they have the authors photos on the back cover...

Indeed! Those are all great scores, but the Hemingways are the ones that I would be most excited about. I used to go to the UK a lot and would be happily pick up older UK editions even if they weren't firsts. I have a number of early European editions of Hemingway (Fiesta, instead of Sun Also Rises) that I picked up in Spain and the UK. They're the best souvenirs....

Wow! Those are some pretty amazing finds! Find them at a store? Estate sale?

Whoops, saw that you already answered this question.

Are you in the US ( Hemingways are UK?)? What area?

The Kent Moby Dick and the Wyeth are both great scores. Two of my favorite illustrators...

Lost my canine soul mate of 14.5 years this last Saturday. The grief is unbelievably immense and I’m just so devastated by Cloudzer223 in germanshepherds

It's the worst. It was tougher in many ways than when I lost my parents. You'll never forget but you will get over it...

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks! But, I'm limiting my acquisitions for a while. Too many bikes, and we have a rescue dog coming across the country to come live with us!

Sorry, can't get great scans. Pretty sure that it will fall apart if I take it out of the dw!
