Cover Updates, Hans Helweg, Optimism and ‘The Small Woman’

After mentioning some covers I was after I’ve had a good week tracking them down plus one title that has been on a wants list for quite a while. They were two editions of ‘Peyton Place’ from 1972 and 1976, the missing copy of ‘Down All The Days’ from 1971 plus two editions of ‘The Pan Book of Crosswords 5’ I’m still after several books of crosswords so if anyone can help with a scan or the book if unwanted from this list then please email or comment. As always I have to mention I’m still after a copy of X705.


I picked up another copy of ‘Oliver Twist’ illustrated by Hans Helweg as it was signed. What caught my attention was the dedication is in English but the book is written in Danish.


I do love the optimism of some sellers on eBay after spotting THIS had been relisted yet again.


Recently Ray Steptoe posted on Facebook several editions of ‘The Small Woman’ On looking more closely I’ve realised there is an edition I haven’t got. He shows five spines and so I’m now looking for the 1975 variant, another to add to the ever growing wants list.
