Gauntlet's newest newsletter actually has me considering Phoenix 451 now...

In addition to the five scripts/screenplays that Bradbury wrote, this collection also includes a facsimile of F451's second manuscript. THAT sounds intriguing to me.

Plus the page count is now at 800 pages. A lot of that will likely be due to the formatting of the scripts/screenplays, but that's still a beast.

Also, how in the hell has it been six months since this title was first announced? Where did six months go?! It feels like it was last month...

Probably pass, I still have lots of other Bradbury Titles to track down.

Very like the same story here. I got kind of burnt out on the facsimile screenplay format anyhow, so the appeal is already muted. Pretty neatl that the signatures of (now officially the world's oldest person who has gone into space...that was really cool to watch yesterday!) William Shatner and Bradbury will be in the same book, though, but not enough to pay the assumed high lettered pricetag...should be a nice item for those who do, though.

I thought this was interesting: "As long as you use the code we provide, you will get a copy of the book."
So, how many letters will there be?

I'm leaning towards passing on this one.

52 lettered copies are if I read correctly. That means 2 of each letter . So they will be Copies A-Z and copies AA-ZZ.

The Bradbury title is Phoenix 451, a collection of Fahrenheit 451 screenplays.

As suspected, there will be copies signed by Bradbury. The lettered edition features Bradbury's signature on a limitation page with no title. And there will be mix of signed and unsigned copies for the "numbered". The signature sheets for these ones are overrun pages from previously published works, so there likely won't be an actual number.

One’s my limit.

Hey, Jeff, I went to Half Price Books this afternoon, and look what I found just sitting there smugly on the shelf…

Better snag that up! It's a rare signed copy! ;-)

I drew a cactus with a vulture on it, at the end of that long squiggle on his fake signature.......LOL!

Perfect!

Don't buy every one you see.

I will buy the one I find where the signature varies.

You had me at “Powell’s.”

Valid point. Browsing Powell's is already a hobby so adding this step will really b just an add on.

I hate to admit this but checking any copies of Blake Crouch books for 'signatures' whenever I am in Powell's will be my new hobby.
