And on eBay I found a SIGNED 1959 copy of The Road to Compiegne for $142 am was set to buy it (after begging the hubby) and when I went back they had upped the Buy It Now cost to $489! I was very upset, but then the hubby told me I can buy the remaining Arrow reprints I needed for my collection (a total of $190) for my Christmas present. So, either way, it's a Plaidy Christmas for this fan! I now have 81 of 94 single Plaidy novels!
Imagine having all of this for our collection! somebody's always beating me to it though...
ReplyDeleteFabulous post- the only thing is it's making me very wanting! And...a little depressed..
Wow that is cool. And very nice of your husband to try to make it up to you!
ReplyDeleteNice! That is what I want for Christmas too!
ReplyDeleteWOW!! This is amazing Arleigh, congrats on your coming-up Christmas presents! I'm also loving Jean Plaidy's color photograph, IT IS LOVELY!!
ReplyDeleteI've been a Plaidy fan since my late teens, and I owe to her my introduction to Historical Fiction and my passion for reading in general! I am so very happy that you have created this website and blog, I think Mrs. Plaidy would have felt so honored to see it.
OK Arleigh you didn't have to post this. I am actually the one bidder on the first little thank you letter.
ReplyDeleteI should have done the Buy it now feature for the photo, like an idiot I wasn't thinking, so I was outbid on the photo pretty quickly.
Hoping I snag the letter though.
Marie- you're all over the place- you're too funny!!
ReplyDeleteLOL Lucy =)
ReplyDeleteI am the almighty online powerful.. not..
But I did win the first thank you note card, which I am curious as to what the fine print on the note card is. I'll be sure to let y'all know =)
I will also frame it and set it atop my Plaidy bookcase.
