Yeah, - ridiculous prices, I've recently sent away for a few more Dalek books, including the Dalek Omnibus ( NOT the DW& the Daleks Omnibus, - I've already got that [lovely] book ) and some were going for £994.99!?!?<br />I thought to myself, "Yeah, - good luck with THAT!"John Pitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08035300858247327343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-32753980475172555082017-01-03T15:03:22.735+00:002017-01-03T15:03:22.735+00:00What kind of condition, JP?

Currently reading The Zarbi, but although okay, it's not as well-written as the two David Whitaker books.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-53714852492919920952017-01-03T14:45:31.077+00:002017-01-03T14:45:31.077+00:00Especially as I didn't have the first edition,...Especially as I didn't have the first edition, but the second with a greyish dust jacket ( same picture ).<br />And I've just tracked down a reasonably-priced Armada paperback, which I was after for the different illustrations therein!John Pitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08035300858247327343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-36997367056411550172016-12-31T21:19:26.777+00:002016-12-31T21:19:26.777+00:00I've never actually handled an original copy, ...I've never actually handled an original copy, JP, but I did get the impression (going on photos I'd seen of the 1964 edition) that the reprint was thinner. Your memory confirms that, so I'd say it's extremely likely that the first one had thicker paper. It's great to see the original dustjacket illustration 'though.
