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’<\/span><\/strong><\/em> <\/a>from 1972 and 1976, the missing copy of ‘Down All The Days’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> from 1971 plus two editions of <\/span>‘The Pan Book of Crosswords 5’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> I’m still after several books of crosswords so if anyone can help with a scan or the book if unwanted from this list<\/span><\/strong><\/a> then please email or comment. As always I have to mention I’m still after a copy of X705<\/span><\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

I picked up another copy of ‘Oliver Twist’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> illustrated by Hans Helweg<\/strong><\/span><\/a> as it was signed. What caught my attention was the dedication is in English but the book is written in Danish.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

Recently Ray Steptoe posted on Facebook several editions of<\/span> ‘The Small Woman’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> 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.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
