Really enjoying this book, great to find one with the Chouannnerie. Now, is it just me, or am I right in supposing that there's more than coincidence between...
Reginald Pound wrote a book called _The Strand Magazine 1891-1950_, and he devoted a page to Sabatini, who he apparently knew quite well through Pound's role...
I just finished proofing the collection of Sabatini mysteries, which I'm guessing will be out within the next couple of months, and I was really struck by how...
Steve Darley has re-done his list of Sabatini First Editions, and I have uploaded it to the list. You'll find it under: SABATINILIST2.xls One of the more...
Hello Jesse & Steve, Thanks for the update. One comment so far, for Scaramouche G&D issued two different photoplay editions. The first photoplay edition...
Oh, if I had to guess, Ernie, and it isn't easy, since I can't see your machine, I would guess that you don't have excel. The file is an excel spreadsheet. ...
Hello Jesse & Steve, Some other thoughts that occurred to me for the spreadsheet: (1) Do we want to mention any of the dustjacket artwork variants? For...
Hi Frank My spreadsheet is really meant to focus on the books from a 1st edition standpoint. I think the information I have included on dustjackets is about as...
Great work, Frank, But I was going to write basically the same thing that Steve did. I've seen a couple of bibliographies that were so loaded down with...
Steve & Jesse, Thank you for your encouraging words. Although I must confess that I do not have every 1st edition jacket of Sabatini's works -- sadly I'm...
Frank, I wouldn't say you have to wait until the project is complete to publish something. Put what you have together. Submit it to the list for additions,...
Dear Frank and all, Well, I don't often say anything, but I think it would be wonderful to have the information you mention all in one place. As a bookseller,...
Jan, I look at one of the purposes of this group is to disseminate information about Sabatini and his books and stories, so I think it would be great for you...

Thanks, Jesse. I've now converted the "Sabatini Illustrators" document and uploaded it. For now, I'll leave it at the two Excel files, but if list members...
Jan,, thank you for addressing my problem. That was very thoughtful. Jesse suggested a solutiion and it worked! Thanks to both of you. Ernie Romano ... ...
Hello Folks, Before we jump the gun sending out various formats of Steve's current spreadsheet, it might be beneficial to give me a few days to finish up...
Folks, The tally is over 50 additions now -- as I've added another 20 odd Canadian editions to the 30 additional printings noted below. I still need to finish...
Frank, I view the two projects as distinctly separate. Steve's work can be turned into a PDF file. AND your work can be turned into a PDF file from whatever...
Hello Jesse, As far as a definitive bibliography, I'm certainly willing to take up the challenge. In fact, I often spend a few hours of each week contributing...
Sure, go ahead! But I would think you would want to pass the work before a couple of experts in the field--not only Steve Darley, but one or two others we have...
We're going to update the Sabatini site in the near future. If anyone has an article or review or anything else he or she would like to contribute, please...
I am sure most of you are aware of this; but for those who are novices like myself, there is a fine article on the net on "How to Spot and Identify a Facsimile...
An interesting topic, Ernie. It would be interesting to find out if Sabatini books are a target of such facsimiles. Occasionally, book dealers will ask me to...
... I don't know if the autograph I have is a forgery or not. Cheri (my wife) gave it to me one year as a Christmas present. It's the tiniest, most precise...
