Re: the true first 'seymour'?

and if it had been signed by salinger, your
bookseller's copy would have been my collector's
dream-come-true.

rhtrbc&sai is my favorite salinger book. but i'm
afraid i've had to settle for the third issue.

any signed salinger item is absurdly out of this
world. even 'catcher' firsts require bank robbery.
