[QUOTE="toozie21, post: 425409, member: 9044"]Not gonna lie SIS, I am VERY upset with you. I have literally spent HOURS trying to find this (and I consider myself a pretty good google-er)!!!! That is indeed the set I have (though not my pics). All the other ones I could find seemed pretty much the exact same as that, but never was 20th/twentieth on the spine. Mine are pretty much in the same state as those. It is interesting to note that those people could find zero other copies of the set. I forgot that there was a sticker indicating that it was of a run of 500, I'll have to see what number mine was. Of course the listing is too old for ebay to show what it was listed at and if it even sold. But it is at least nice to see someone else has this set, and that they couldn't find another set online either. I //think// I figured out who the seller was (Rhode Island Antiques Mall [ebay user: riantiquesmall]) based on they way they worded stuff at the end of the book post and finding exact matches for some of it in this person's new descriptions (and the fact that they are an antique place only re-affirms to me that it is them). I don't have a Worthpoint account, so I'll try to see if the seller would be willing to let me know any information on the set and maybe how much it ended up going for (doubtful on the last one). You guys are all great, thanks for getting me into the right direction. I'll report back if I can get any other information on this!!!![/QUOTE]
