G'day All!

I have recently taken up collecting Biggle Books again (after a few years break)
and I have found that the values have shot up. Does anyone know where I can find
a rough list of values for each book?

Also, does anyone have a top 10 of the rarest Biggles books?

Thanks all!

Was interested to read in the review of the 8 Rooms, 9 Lives exhibition that
Alec Jeffrey, discoverer of the DNA fingerprinting technique was a Biggles
reader:

While working in the area, the researchers noticed a half-buried pot and
some human remains. Then the brothers spotted something really
intriguing — what could have been a natural shelter.

It was a rock
<http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33791672/ns/technology_and_science-science/#>
about 114.8 feet long, 5.9 feet in height and 9.8 feet deep. Such
natural formations occur in the desert, but this large rock was the only
one in a large area.

"Its size and shape made it the perfect refuge in a sandstorm,"
Castiglioni said.

Right there, the metal detector of Egyptian geologist Aly Barakat of
Cairo University located relics of ancient warfare: a bronze dagger and
several arrow tips.

Isn't that pretty much what happens in the book, written almost 60 years
earlier?
