Such a classic. I have the Mirra Ginsburg translation printed by Avon in '87 but would love to get an early English edition. Sadly there is but one copy for sale of the 1924 translation by Gregory Zilboorg (produced after a copy of the manuscript had been smuggled into the US in 1921). That copy is currently listed at $17,500.00.
