Hi all
This is the husband lol from what I know the one in red looks unread both are ex library the dust jacket on both copy's are identical I removed the worse looking one from its cover and it looks just as good as the other, as for been a rebound copy I don't think it is from my experience of rebounds there either really bad or good and carry a sticker or marking from the people that rebound it as for value I have seen worse copy's sell on eBay for around £70

Can you take a pic of the reverse of the last shot, showing the pages? Ie the opposite of the spine shot. Then a top shot to show any spine lean etc - as depending on condition worth more than £70 easily.
Still thinking a rebound but I don't have anything to back it up -the font of Legend is wrong and the Centery logo missing - it's all printed.

Your right there but it looks untouched possibly a very early edition? I can't see why it would of been rebound the spine is straight as a new book has zero lean and the pages are not worn at all no turned corners or anything

That's why it possibly is a rebound to remove the originals spine lean.
My mate just emailed me and his is the black with silver that you have.

Possibly but there is only a few stamps in the book and it's from Shetland libraries and I doubt there would be enought people there to read it and wear it out to need to be rebound lol but why would a library take the effort of the lettering on the spine? Surely they would of left it blank

As I said I don't know for certain mate, and as said very jealous! Do you have more Gemmell firsts? How much did you get those for - but seeing as how your Missus has an account perhaps a price for the forum and then pm me the multiplier to get to the right price data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

I have a Last Sword of Power - bought at cover price from a book shop in Totty ct road - Murder One - which I don't think is there anymore. Drenia Tales 2 I bought recently - I think if you go back in this thread you will see it as that was one I was missing - perfect copy flat signed for £100. I also recently bought a hardback version of Vol 1 as I had the paperback and then found it had a massive ding to the spine, meaning I of course needed to replace it with a hardback version which cost a pretty penny mags again I think is in this thread.
Do you have any proof editions? Did you ever meet him?
