Ferrari in Camera

Hello,

Just seen on Ebay the sale of "Ferrari in camera", the Goddard & Nye's iconic book. http://shop.ebay.fr/i.html_from=R40&...LH_TitleDesc=0

Happy to have it on my shelves!

According to the Palawan Press website: "There is only one copy of the leatherbound edition available for sale (GBP 2000.-). There are also a few copies of the clothbound edition still available (GBP 750.-)".

2000 GBP for a book? I don't know. Is it made out of platinum sheets and printed with gold ink?

It is a phenomenal book. I would say the best Ferrari photo book out there. Now, whether it's worth that much........

$2500 for the blue version is pretty optimistic. This seems to be confirmed by the lack of bids. I paid about half that for mine, and I consider that about what the book's value is.

There is one in 'le art et automobile''s current auction, bidding set to begin at $500USD

No action on it, so far, but 20 days to the end of the auction.

I think similar about model cars in the $ XXX.XX range.
But regarding Ferrari in Camera. I agree with others. It's the best book on Ferrari historic motor racing and a bibliographic jewel. I paid ~ $400,-- back in 1996 for it and think, this is what it's worth.
Maybe a certain premium, because it so rare. But no way 2000.

Best Regards

Martin

Good Lord... thats over $6500. Wow. Testing the waters i guess... Can't be a very motivated seller...
Unless its the "Ferrari" edition with the red covers or another (more) limited print.

Anyone looking for a copy may check this website:
http://www.autonetclassic.nl

Or still better get in in touch with the publisher for a cheaper and new 'red' copy:

Hi George,

You might want to take a look at this thread:

Ferrari in Camera , the register

You will find all info you need.
Unfortunately there is no information anymore on Palawan's website.
I think the 'Red' edition is now sold out also. You could send them an e-mail to be sure.
