My $22 copy of "The Book" arrived today. I don't think it's ever been read. There is some slight damage to the paper cover, but the spine is still stiff, as if it's never been opened. Seems like someone bought it and stuck it on a shelf. It's in much better shape than my $50 copy.

Yeah, I did get lucky all right. I thought sure I'd be in a bidding war with folks here. It will make a nice gift to a friend venturing into the world of wee wets and flymphs.

Nice one, Bill. Nice and sparse. Very good looking pattern that I will be copying.
