Sherlock Holmes and the Raleigh Legacy LB Greenwood St. Martin's 1987 1st pb condition: about g/vg in wrappers. It would be vf/nm except it has a dent in the binding like someon started to fold it the wrong way. The effect doesn't make the book unusable or anything like that. I ran across it in a book sale.	$2.00 US from The Diogenes Club
The Canary Trainer Nicholas Meyer WW Norton 1999 1st edition HB w/ DJ condition: mint. brand new. there are a couple of dent-like scrapes that you can see in the gloss of the DJ, otherwise mint. This book is unread. I ran across a couple of these in a close-out from some company my workplace worked with.

Embassy Row Quinn Fawcett Tom Doherty 1998 1st edition HB w/ DJ condition: ex-library w/ all the markings. DJ is about nm. The book has binding broken and damaged in the front, but is not separated. otherwise it would be about vg/f (even including the library markings. It looks to me as if they dicarded it because of the binding). This was part of my personal collection.	$2.00 US from The Diogenes Club
