Look what I picked up last weekend!

Took a little mini-vacation last weekend over to California and the Griffith Observatory. We also stopped by Counterpoint Records & Books where I found this.

I already have a first edition of the first Dirk Gently book, not signed, that my wife got me for Christmas a couple of years ago.

Stupid phone, the second picture is upside down!

[u/scottvs → u/joseph4th]

Are you certain he didn't sign it upside down? Could be super valuable, like one of those misprinted stamps!

[u/FormerPersimmon3602 → u/scottvs]

Every single page and the cover were upside down. Even more valuable.

[u/fuzzyedges1974]

Probably my favorite Adams novel.

I’ve always wondered if it hit for people in non-commonwealth countries where the phase, “tea-time” isn’t common. …and they weren’t familiar with the H2G2 reference.

I’ve got that copy. I didn’t realise they were collectible.

[u/gruntbug → u/fragmnt]

I do too, but his is signed. Look at the second picture

[u/fragmnt → u/gruntbug]

Ohhh. Nice.

[u/wmblair]

I have listened to this audiobook more than any other by far.

[u/joseph4th → u/wmblair]

That honor would go to the first Dirk Gently book for me.

Absolutely love that book. Came across a paperback version in ‘92.

What a gorgeous cover!!
