I purchased the first edition about 6 months ago at a second hand shop for 50 cents. I found inside it has been signed by Colleen McCullough - written as "ToRozemarie with best wishes Colleen McCullough".

On the next page is writen in hand " A Lady is a woman in whose presence a man is a gentleman. With love to Rosemarie from Mum - 1977.

The cover is not in great condition - but it was obviously much loved.

After some further research it appears to be in the first print run and not the 2nd/3rd/4th etc

Any thoughts on value?

Thank you

Sharon

    Remember, condition is everything...

    Hi - yes I realise condition is everything - so I am on the lookout for a cover that is not so "well loved" but is exactly the same. Could not turn this book down.

    Thank you
