People are pretty up-in-arms over the artwork switch in current printings. I found several online petitions to bring back the Gammell artwork and it does look like all the Gammell printings are becoming rare. |
Ohhh good! I'm glad someone is selling it at a reasonable price. That's the same one I have. And yeah, I've seen a lot of hoopla surrounding it as well. They're just not the same, not even close. They went from awesome books I read as a kid to heirlooms.
