Default Abe Lincoln's Books perhaps- as you live in Illinois?

That is indeed a puzzlement. I went to abebooks.com, as you allegedly did, and my copy that is for sale here on the PGCA site forum is as follows: Safari Press Muderlak, Ed Second Edition 1997 Long Beach CA ISBN 1-571157-310-0 and I did NOT see any second editions with DJ as mine listed. Numerich may have the 1st. edition, perhaps that is why they are asking $66.00 and change. I shall check Amazon and see what they have for Mr. Muderlak's second edition.

No one asked, but the reason I have this for sale to PGCA members only is that I also have a first edition. I thought, perhaps misguidedly, that since the esteemed Mr. Muderlak has passed away, along with Mr. McIntosh as well, alas, that a member might like to have a copy. Addendum: was finally able to log onto Amazon Books dot com- they have 3 new copies at $31.98. and possibly 10 used at $29.99- but they state only three in stock and do not differentiate between available new and available used. Also, their new editions are dated April 25, 2005 and my second edition is dated 1997. Not being a professional book dealer, I do not know if the first and second eds. are worth more, as in the Wm. Brophy L.C. Smith book, or not. Best move I feel is for me to withdraw this Muderlak book from the sale listing in our For Sale Section- keep this copy down in the gun room, and the first upstairs in the den-
