A gentleman from years back (based on an inquiry of mine on SFI) emailed me today to let me know he put this up for auction - an early AT1312 in need of some TLC. For the price, if I was in the market, I wouldn't have thought twice, but alas. . .
Thought I would let all the folks that play with project swords in on a deal - ebay item number 290508080997

Well if I won a big lottery I would certainly buy it for you or something like it.
You can easily give up your freedom. You have to fight hard to get it back!

Really?!
I didn't know that thing was so valuable. Maybe I just make a color copy of mine and sell the book.

Just in case someone really wants that book.

Thanks for the link to ZVAB, Arne - looks like a good possible source for German-language books - that copy of the Durer book is very cheap compared to the others I've seen recently.
On the other hand, ZVAB are listing a new copy of Europaische Hieb Und Stichwaffen for US$435, when ABE currently has a dozen secondhand in the $20-40 range (http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults...=0&y=0).
Anyway, back on topic!
