Jules i once got 200 executioner paperbacks at the flea market for 20 dollars because the guy was too lazy to load them back in the van. I really like your videos. Im always amazed by your obsession with quality.
Thanks, 200, wow, I have stuck to the first forty from that series which I think are excellent 🙂 I've only got room for the best quality books these days but I wouldn't have been able to turn that deal down!
The Brothers Grimm Dancing Princesses is absolutly a classic and well worth re-reading! I had a couple of those Bloomsbury Classics, I think. They were nice, but I rarely keep hardcovers.
Understood my friend, I'll take a look 🙂
They are beautiful books. I have not seen those editions before, thank you, I will keep my eyes open?
Good luck, worth looking out for👍
@@JulesBurt thanks😊
You've done well on these, not easy to spot in the wild.
You're right Steve, I bought over half of them from one collector, at just 99p each, a veritable bargain 🙂 Yet another series to collect. You probably remember selling these in the 90's as well.
You inspired me to buy ‘Jules Verne’s “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea’ (I’ve never read it before) in Penguin Cloth Bound Classics. Those books are beautiful also, and I’m jolly well looking forward to reading it.
Ah excellent, that's a favourite of mine 🙂 These are lovely too of course!
Great book (sorry to butt in on the conversation - not sure if it is youtube etiquette or not) but I re-read that a year or two back and it completely exceeded my expectations.
@@OmnivorousReader It's fine and you're dead right my friend!
@@OmnivorousReader TH-cam comments section are a free-for-all 😂
@Yellowblam no worries 🙂
They indeed look good, but the selling point for me (after the text, of course) would be their size. Unless you have unusually large hands, I guess these are about the size of the old Dent Everyman books, or Oxford World Classics. Always a fan of something that fits comfortably in a jacket pocket.
Even smaller than the old Everyman books. I guess I should have put some normal sized books next to them for comparison.
Ooooh. I like them. I’m in USA. I want some!!
eBay will be your best bet.
Beautiful books ❤❤
Totally agree!
Have you heard of Mint Editions? They are like these. They are paperback mostly but publish hardbacks as well. They sre beautiful. I found my first in a used bookstore. Sr Walter Scott. They publish obscure books, children's books, adult books, and minority books. But I made up my mind to collect them. I can only get one at a time.
No, not heard of them but I'll keep an eye open...
These are stunning, Jules! Do you happen to know which one is the most sought after and do you have it? Also, would you know who gets to choose the quote on the back cover?
I'm not sure any are rarer than others but the Will Self was always a priority and I ended up getting it for 99p🙂 No idea about the quote, probably a Bloomsbury editor.
