Followed with.... "Can I buy a copy?" Unfortunately the first version is long out of print, on occasion I see one for sale on a used book sight. Nice part is.... "it is still holding it's initial sale price!" Bonus for the quality of the book. :-) Quite a few copies were sold on the LUG some years ago for I think it was $60.00 each. Today it wouldn't be less than $100! But the copy to look for is the hand bound leather cover copy! Absolutely beautiful produced in rich dark brown leather with title embossed into the leather. "This is Our Work. The Legacy of Sir William Osler." Only 500 copies were made and each sold for $250.00 USA $'s! Once the first few were sold the rest went in a blink of an eye! The copies are signed and numbered! Could be an interesting collection for anyone interested in good books both and photographically. :-) Thanks again. cheers, Dr. ted ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charcot" <charcot at comcast.net> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Monday, October 05, 2009 5:08 PM Subject: [Leica] Ya see Ted's book in ALL the weirdest places > Ted - just wanted to let you know of another place your great book was > spotted.
