Re: The Children at Happy House - and Sequels

No they were different sellers I checked and screen shot them together. I don't know how to put up pictures on here, that's even if you can??

Re: The Children at Happy House - and Sequels

That's a great way of obtaining the story, plus you are getting more stories into the bargain.

Re: The Children at Happy House - and Sequels

Wow, well done IceMaiden (cool name by the way) ;-) I must admit although I love these Latimer editions, I really love the Black and Green illustrations in the bigger books. Well that makes 2 of us on here that own a copy of the elusive Benjy, anyone else care to share if they have a copy??? Not sur...

Never rains it pours hey? Both are / were for sale at around the £75...

Re: The Children at Happy House - and Sequels

Ah thanks Anita, wondered where my post went, didn't think to subject it under a heading of the title of the books. Much easier to find now. Yes Anita and Rob, I agree with you both in that the first two books were more family orientated, and certainly had a more feel good factor about them, especia...

Re: What Enid Blyton book have you recently bought?

You are most welcome Anita, I think they are all pretty difficult to get, especially Benjy. Nice little set and very expensive. I am surprised Benjy was not included in the Collins edition.

Re: What Enid Blyton book have you recently bought?

I so agree Rob, so vibrant and the only means of obtaining Benjy And The Others in book form, even if you have to sacrifice some of the story line in the other two. I wonder if when they chose to reissue the Happy House books, Enid saw an opportunity to add another title to the series? As I believe ...

Re: The Secret Of The Old Mill

Hi guys, I'd like a copy of The Secret Of The Old Mill, new or old edition doesn't matter, and paperback preferable, but I wouldn't mind a hard back either.

Re: What Enid Blyton book have you recently bought?

Slightly off-topic, but Rob, the books you sell with copy dustjackets. Are those copies you've made or just ones you've bought with books and are selling as you found them? Sorry to intrude but if you are seeking good quality repro covers for your books (bearing in mind they are mostly for 1st edit...

Re: What Enid Blyton book have you recently bought?

Thanks sixret, I make my own protective sleeves, and as soon as this one came I instantly covered it, looks lovely on my book shelf. Trust you to get one cheaper :-) I don't regret what I paid though, as its in great shape, and I am looking forward to reading it. Now for a 1st edition Boy Next Door,...
