"Hike and the Aeroplane" would complete my Tom Graham/ Sinclair Lewis collection. I heard a story of a book dealer who had it on his online "wants" list & got an email from a less knowlegable seller asking $35.00 for it. Knowing that probably many other dealers & collectors were likly to pounce on it, he immediately emailed and phoned & was up front in telling the person the asking price was hardly a fraction of the book's value. He offered, I think, around $4,000 which the seller immediately accepted. When he paid for book later, the seller said there were over 40 other requests to buy it and not one offered more than $35.00. <br /> <br />Off-topic of the thread I know, but the thread has nothing to do with trains anyway. <br /> <br />Wayne
