I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that they only did one print run of dago red before they took it off the shelf.

Anyone know the story behind this new Dan fante broadside, Supermarket?

I'm a few months late but while I was reading this thread I couldn't help but think of a book called "A Gentle Madness: Bibliophiles, Bibliomanes, and the Eternal Passion for Books" by Nicholas Basbanes. It's about the history of book collecting starting from about 2500 years ago. Apparently...

Hi everyone, I found this site a few weeks ago when I was looking for bukowski signatures from different eras. I had seen some signed stuff on ebay that I was curious about and didn't want to be shafted on forgeries. When I started reading in the forum I couldn't believe the quality! No...

Ha! that's fantastic. I really like that copy of Death on the Installment Plan!

Yeah i've attempted to buy the last few bantam ask the dusts that have come up on ebay! They always stay low til the last 30 seconds... It's incredible that some of you guys can email John martin and have him respond the same day!

A signed "Wait Until Spring, Bandini" just popped up on ebay and I'm very interested in buying one. I was excited at the listing until I clicked on it and saw what appears to be a forgery. Doesn't the signed edition have a cream spine? Didn't he always sign the full "john fante" for black...

If i were listing one of those there's no way i'd think to check how many other LETTERED editions were up!

Signed Limited Women on ebay? This signature and number look very fake to me, but I also have not seen as many signatures as many of you. What do you guys think...
