I have a few good ones...need to take actual pics but these guys are sealed up right now...

First Edition Ayn Rand Fountainhead (with dustjacket)


I have a 1937 first edition (limited printing) of Audubon's Birds of America prints that I've loved since I was a kid. Original dustjacket intact.


Almost mint 2nd printing "Revised" Ghosts Along the Mississippi.



TBH - I traded my Ghosts for the Audubon with my folks so they can keep it with their Louisiana books while I'm in Texas.

Man, you got me thinking about my Louisiana books, and I've looked through 6 boxes in the attic and CANNOT find my signed Tim Edler's...anywhere!

I had

T-boy, The Little Cajun
T-boy and the Trial for Life
Maurice the Snake and Gaston the Near-Sighted Turtle
The Adventures of Crawfish-Man
and
Swamp Wars: Dark Gator, Villian of the Atchafalaya

My brother lost Crawfish-Man Rescues Ron Guidry when we were kids...

At least I still have my sisters Clovis Crawfish books by M.A. Fontenot. One of them signed...published by Claitor's with the Perkins Rd. address.

ETA: My sister says the Edler books are in her storage unit in Denham...The Adventures of Crawfish-Man was given to my nephew for Christmas late 80s.
