Originally posted by RonClinton View PostWill probably pass. I already have a signed (by Bradbury) HC 1st of 451 (the edition also with Gaiman’s intro), so while this Suntup edition looks quite nice, I think I’m covered, and just don’t the burning love for this book (see what I did there?;-)) to buy a redundant copy like I did with I AM LEGEND.
So even better than I’d remembered, and more than sufficient to scratch my 451 itch, so will now definitely pass on the Suntup edition.Last edited by RonClinton; 03-14-2020, 08:22 PM.Twitter: https://twitter.com/ron_clinton

Turns out it is not a signed trade of the 50th edition, after all, but instead a “Special Edition” HC that is signed by Bradbury *and* individually numbered in a limitation of 2500 copies.

It's wild discovering that you have something more valuable than you realized. I remember when I learned that I have a Micheal Whelan remarque in my Grant Edition of Little Sister's of Eluria. I thought he drew KA as part of his signature.

I think I am passing on the GE. Most interested in the Whelan work but I'm not keen on the style of the interior illustrations.
