05 Nov 02 - 11:14 PM (#819592) Subject: RE: Child Ballads on e-Bay From: GUEST,Q Child English Scottish Ballads full set in HC. Now at $227.50. 1956 Folklore Press edition. Ends Nov. 09, 2:20 PM PST. I put Child Ballads in the blank and it came up. The consigner gives a detailed description. |
05 Nov 02 - 11:18 PM (#819595) Subject: RE: Child Ballads on e-Bay From: GUEST,Q Yes, the reserve of $298 has been met. |
06 Nov 02 - 01:03 AM (#819638) Subject: RE: Child Ballads on e-Bay From: Malcolm Douglas Probably a reasonable price for that edition (given that it's out of print, hardback, and that all editions of Child tend to sell for inflated prices), but the new Loomis House edition (assuming that all 5 volumes get published) will be much better value; beside the addition of music where it's available, the paper quality appears to be better than that used for Folklore Press publications in the 1950s. |
06 Nov 02 - 01:54 AM (#819652) Subject: RE: Child Ballads on e-Bay From: Joe Offer I've seen the Loomis House edition, and it looks good. You can also get it from Dick Greenhaus at Camsco - just send a personal message to Dick. -Joe Offer- |

14 Mar 03 - 11:52 AM (#910011) Subject: RE: Child Ballads on e-Bay From: Joe Offer With a starting bid of $100, I think I'd choose to get the Loomis House Edition throught Dick Greenhaus at Camsco, or direct from Loomis House. Volume 2 is available now, about $25 paperback and $35 hardcover - but Dick can get if for you cheaper. -Joe Offer- |
