I like hardcopies so I will up the bid on the "controversial cover" to $50.

You probably would have held it for a few years and either sold it to another acaeumite or traded it for a bunch of judges guild stuff. my collecting obsession to have one of everything is encompassed from the domesday books through 2003 (I collect sporadically after that; mainly the products of my friends Tim & Frank). I hadn't planned on bidding again, as i stated, I was getting the ball rolling as a thank you to Thork for some friendly customer service. without specifically discussing it with him, i suspect Bracton has similar feelings. the lawrenson's (& probably others) would not have bid. i think the winning bidder would have been someone who has steadily collected all of Thork's products and who would have viewed this as a great jewel. while it will still be a jewel for the winner, personally i don't think it will shine quite as brightly. that's my .02
