     I have a first edition, first printing, copy of GR that I bought from a
rare book specialist in Cambridge in summer '95. Set me back $750. It is in
perfect condition - apparently never having been read. 
     The inside of the dust jacket contains only "A.S.C.A.T.S" , "jacket
design by Marc Getter", and the price  --  $15.00.
      Does this mean that what ever price it is that we are all about to lay
out for our copies of M & D will appreciate 5000% in the next 22 years ? (If
we don't read them?)
       Does anyone know what the quantity of the first printing of GR was,
and how many the first print run of M & D will be ?
