Who Would Have Thought It

[John Davis]

When I wrote and compiled The Life and Times of Fred Kimble, I sold copies for $15.00 plus shipping. There were two editions and I published 500 copies of each. I am now left with two copies of each edition. Guess my daughters, Scout and Parker, will get those. I saw a first edition copy on Ebay described as "signed" and "rare". They have a buy it now for $175.00. I wish.

If there is such a thing, you should have" reserved royalty rights".

John, I would not sell mine for three times that price. However, I did not buy the 'Gun". Did you?

Alas, I did. Had not intended to but........

[Phil Yearout]

Glad I got my copy at the original price :)!

I also have a copy signed by the author. $175 is a steal. If you don’t have one better act fast.

At $175 a copy, my girls can do without.

I agree.

John John John , money is not everything ! I suspect if you ask the young ladies they’d rather have an original signed copy of their fathers book over $175 . Money comes and goes memories are forever :whistle:

[Bill Murphy]

John, you indicated before the sale that you were not interested in "The gun". However when the bidding slowed down while still cheap, I assumed you were my competing bidder, so I quit. Congratulations.

[John Davis]

Bill, I honestly didn’t intend on bidding. The fact that someone had shaved 3 inches off the barrels was a real heart breaker for me. When I lost out on an earlier gun that I did want, I decided to go for the Kimble gun. It was a last minute decision.

I had a spare copy at one time, I'll have to look.....
