I don't know how you guys are managing to acquire so many books in this market! Even in my best years, I never collected more than a dozen!

Ya, for me it's been a little right place at right time. Lots and lots of digging. A little help from other collectors. I have been fortunate with a couple of these as the dealers came down to my asking price.

Lots of digging, haggling, waiting, budgeting and spreadsheets, bidding. Help from others. Hits and misses.

Apologies for poor photo - DJ is more green in real life.
