    Currently going for 200 bucks on Amazon and 100 bucks on ebay, if someone wants to cash in.

    Highly collectable now apparently.

    I had my copy in storage for ages - not sure it would be worth that much!

    What do you think of it, Matt?

    A great primer to a previously neglected era. Unashamedly biased.
