YinTx Report post Posted July 3, 2019 Not sure if I can show this off here in this section since it isn't leather work, but I was soo excited to find this in the collection of books and tools I recently acquired. These are two sequentially signed and numbered books from Paul Burnett in fantastic condition! Had to share it here with those of you that appreciate this kind of thing. I am selling some of the books that I have duplicates of, but I think I'll be keeping these little treasures. Anyone have any idea of value?

robs456 Report post Posted July 4, 2019 So the dude is rocking two different signatures? I guess he didn't feel like signing 1000 copies with the 'artistic version', even though that one is much cooler... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect I would have done the same thing if I had to do 1000 copies... YinTx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty happy with them, now I need to take some time and actually read them and try to learn a few things... Also, been trying to figure out what the value might be on them, saw one on Amazon not signed as far as I can tell, $50, so perhaps a bit more value with the sequentially numbered signatures?

YinTx I'm guessing the artistic signature is printed as part of the text so he didn't have to do that by hand on all of them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose it is possible, I'm no expert in these sort of things. But I did notice that the signatures are slightly different next to the number sequence, for instance the way the last two t's are done, would they do that as a printed signature? Or are you referring to the fancy signature at the end of the paragraph? I suspect that one is printed for sure... YinTx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baroness Report post Posted July 14, 2019 I meant the fancy one looks printed as part of the book. I was thinking that is what they meant talking about the artistic one. The variation doesn't look a lot different between the two. Mine varies more than that, I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
