SiegeGunner Posted 1 July , 2006 Share Posted 1 July , 2006 Pleased to hear that someone got a result this afternoon! I don't think Admiral Bacon would be too pleased to know that his 2-volume Fisher went for just 10/- In fact he's probably rolling in his grave - which I happened to photograph a couple of weeks ago. Enjoy your bargains, and if you'd like to sell on the Fisher after you've read it, please let me know. Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
