Will- I'm definately going back to buy it. The owner is keeping it on hold for me. It is, actually, the same as the 45th edition - my friend has the same edition as you do and since it is the same I can understand why it has little value. Thanks! Sarah ********************************** Sarah, I'm no authority but I may be able to offer a bit of sense...a new hardbound catcher is gonna run in the mid twenties and will be a forty something edition (like me...)...if your second edition is in good condition and has a dust jacket, I'd guess it's a fair price but be warned that there is little collector's value to the second edition since it is the same as the 45th edition I have and not the first edtion with Salinger's mug on the cover...nonetheless, if it were in my book store I'd have bought it, will
