Reprinted June twice ……… four times , March, October, ; February, , October, three times , November, Very good conditio, but no dust jacket. Any idea of its worth. No dust cover, although book description from dust cover is glued to inside front and back covers. This appears to be an old library edition with the library card holder still glued to the back having check-out dates beginning Jul 23, — Sep 8, Still in pretty good shape considering age.

Any value above this? In very good condition. Can you give me any information? Approximate estimated worth? What is the rough value of a 1st Edition, 1st printing May in very good condition without dust jacket, signed by Margaret Mitchell?

Thanks for your service! I have an old copy of Gone with the Wind. The cover dose not have a dust cover but looks just like the dust cover would with the drawings and everthing on it in green. It has the cover page with the date ripped out of it however.

Is there any other way to tell what year it was published? Would it even be worth anything since this page with the date is ripped out? Rebecca Jamison: You have a third printing. Reprinted June twice July three times August six times September four times October six times November three times December Any value? No dust jackey ,good condition. Hello, I left a question on Nov.

I have a gone with the wind book, flat grey , no cover. I take it this has no value? Peter: It depends on if it is hardcover or paperback and if it has a dust jacket. These are just estimates as it depends on condition as well and whether someone will pay you these prices. Usually they are marked as such but occasionally they are not.

The pages have a little yellowing very end of the pages and it seems that some dampness at some time has discolored some pages but none of the facing on the pages are damaged. The cover is grayish with blue writing on the spine and title.

I hope that this helps and thank you Rick Perry. Rick: Sorry for the delay. I assume you want to know the value. Earlier ones sell for bit more. Hello, could you tell me aboout the value of my copy? A dealer may be able to get more. It is good that you have a good provenance on it.

With signed books people want as much information as they can to determine that is not a fake. Book Club Editions of almost any book are not collectable. Book Club Editions of GWTW are very common, they are inferior quality compared to trade editions, and tehy have a different dust jacket illustration.

Hey there, I just picked up a first edition book from a thrift store this week. Does that make sense? Wasnt sure if that was normal or not. Thanks in advance for your help! Wendy: That seems strange. I have a First Edition in my hands as I type this and there is no Introduction in the first edition.

Perhaps someone typed up an introduction and bound it into the book. M Do you know who this person is and if its a first edition? I am a very happy owner of a book club edition. I picked it up when I was about 9 years old at my local library book sale for ten cents! I have a edition of GWTW, it has cover and an insert about the author.

Any thoughts on price or history. Hello, I have a copy of Gone with the Wind. Its a hard cover with the dust jacket. The book I would say is in good condition as is the jacket. The information states: Copyright by the MacMillan Company. Published June , Reprinted June twice , July three times ,August six times ,September four times ,October six times ,November three times.

My question is it has a brown leather cover with the front board separated from the spine. Thank you in advance. I have a first edition of Gone With the Wind signed and dated. Signiture looks authentic when comparing to other Margaret Mitchell signitures.

The signiture is Mrs. Hunt Mitchell. I can not find any reference to a Mrs. Hunt Mitchell in her bios. I can email the page if it helps. Any thoughts. I have an old Gone With The Wind that my mother had. After reading most of the above it appears to be a book club edition because of the roman numerals. I do have a question… Ms. Mitchell wrote on the dedication page, To, J. Who is this person? And, is this dedication in all of the books no matter whether they are frist editions, etc.

Also, I do not have the dust jacket and wondered how much it may be worth? Sorry about the delay in replies on this site. I have been too busy too do anything with this for quite a while. Karen: All GWTW books that have pages are book club editions and are not first editions in any sense.

They are fairly worthless on the market. The person the book was dedicated to: J. Marsh, who was the one who inspired her to write the book. There are collectors looking for later printings but they have to be the trade edition and in nice condition. Carl: It might be worth rebinding it. Hunt Mitchell and I was not able to find anything. The date on the copyright page means nothing. If it is roman numerals it is a book club edition. There are thousands of book club copies and they all are worth nothing.

The two column page layout is found only in the Book Club edition. Eltina: The person the book was dedicated to: J. Yes, it would be a book club edition if it has roman numerals and thus it is not worth anything. I am sure there are many others that feel the same way. Most of the people that view this post are looking into finding out the value of their books monetarily and that is the nature of most of the here.

Binding is a little exposed in the inner rear cover but it seems strong, covers are not loose and no missing pages. Inner covers are brown with age and it has a handwritten message from a father to daughter on the cover page. Other than that the book looks good throughout, very clear text. I would have picked it up for that price!

Hello and thank you for your help. I read this whole thread. Just wanted to say thanks for the load of good info. Has dust jacket in pretty good shape. Not a bad score. It depends. CamelJoe: Great! Goverts Verlag G. Any idea of value? No dust cover. I had a copy of the German edition in Dust Jacket later printing from about I am not sure you can tell if it is the First German Edition. The one had looked like a First German Edition but it mentioned on the dust jacket that Margaret Mitchell had died, meaning that it was at least printed after I would think that maybe the Dust Jacket did not belong to that book?

I appreciate your response and information. I am by no means any book expert…just love the story, Mom was German and I was given the birth name of Scarlett, really! Thanks much! Very interesting that your mother was named Scarlett!

No, her name was very German…she came here to the states and named me Scarlett. Thank you! On the spine the text is also in gold. The book is tan. I picked up a GWTW edition that I believe is a trade issue without a dust cover and some damage to top of spine.

The last date on the copyright page is October, Does this mean it was a November first reprint? Do you have an idea of value? Yes, that would be a trade printing. It would be the 7th printing in October I have several first editions of GWTW, however, I have one that is a 4th printing , pages, all in beyond excellent condition.

Unlike the others, on the title page, beneath Gone With the Wind, is a photo of Margaret Mitchell printed on the page. I have never seen or heard of one with a photo of Mitchell. I would be interested in seeing a photo. I thinks I have a rare book. Text in two columns per page.

No copyright. Book is blue. Do you have any ideas when it was printed or value? It is Macmillan. Wondering what the actual print dates were for the October seventh printing. Book is Hardcover, no dust jacket but in very good condition, about two inches thick. Does this have any value other than the usual for this age.? Thanks so much!
