John, thanks for the information about the special edition of
Pough's Field Guide to Rocks & Minerals.
I"ve searched the internet and I haven't been able to see anyone
actually listing this for sale.
Have you seen anything about this edition being offered for sale ?

It is a limited edition but I suggest that you contact the Easton Press, Norwalk, Connecticut, the publisher. You should be able to find contact info on the internet. My copy is somewhat special because Fred Pough wrote in it:

"To John White:
I hope there hides
Between these hides
A thing or two
That's news to you.

Fred Pough"

I have already contacted the publisher and there are no copies of the book available. Very sorry.

Hi John, yes I also contacted Easton Press and they informed me that the Paterson estate voided their contract.
Thanks for trying to help.
Barry
