collectible.
when i first started publishing little books of poetry, i used to tell people "some day this will be very old."

and this is true. the last time i published poetry was 1982. all my little poetry books are now over 25 years old. i amuse myself sometimes by ego-surfing used.addall.com. the price for some of them occasionally goes into triple digits. (today's high is $75.)

when i came back from europe in 2003, my old boss, the printer, argued hard for a larger print run than the one i selected. i just kept repeating to him: i have this much money. i want this many books. so in 2003, there were 500 each of the little photo books.

now we're down to 213 of My Feet Go to Europe, 249 of This Is Me in Europe, and a mere 99 of Signs of Peace in Europe. woo-hoo! double digits!

the collage book was originally a run of 1000. signed and numbered. i'm not going to tell you how many are left, but it's definitely in the triple digits. half price sale for only another 20 days.

i'm sure they'd be happier on your shelves than huddled miserably in boxes. just saying.
