Zeebo, where do you find the number?

 

[Zebbo Mooty]

Heello Meerkat,
The limited edition is a Waterstone's Exclusive and only 5000 were published. The number is handwritten on the second page.
Fortunate for you, my little iconographic imp, Mr. Paul A. Royd, has scribbled down some remarkable images for you to ease your curiousty.

Welcome from me too, snostorm! Sadly, I can't help you either, but I hope you'll find someone who can... (but why'd you sell a signed, numbered copy of Nation?? )

Welcome to the site, snostorm!

This isn't a lot of help, but it's going to be worth as much as people are prepared to spend on it. There was a time, not so long ago when people joked that Terry signed so many books that it was rarer (and therefore more valuable) to have an unsigned one.

That isn't true of course, but as with any author - the more signed copies they are, the less valuable they'll be. It's supply and demand.

Check on ebay or ABE BOOKS to get a rough idea, but at the moment as they are not a rarity, not a lot maybe low double figures.

And Welcome to the site.

The number on my copy is 126 and it's grey rather than black. Unfortunately it must have had some glitter spilled over it at some point, but after a lot of rubbing I managed to get it all off.
