Financially, I need to wait the 4-6 months until it's for sale in the USA. It's usually cheapest from Allegro or Amazon.

I will be buying it, I have the first 19.

I am a fanatic DE collector; there are too many similarities between the (eventual) 25 volumes in this series for me to justify it otherwise!

It is irritating that Storyville has been releasing these in Europe 4-6 months before the USA, but at least they're doing them!

I'm in for this one too. I'll be checking Amazon as well. Too bad that it's taking YEARS to get these things out. They're quite excellent however.

Thanks for the heads up Dental.

We're actually lucky that SV decided to finish the series at all after "Papa" Knudson passed away. This is actually his baby, & for awhile there was some question if it would be completed.

What these are is a digitised & remastered version of a huge LP set that Jerry Valburn & Jack Towers put out YEARS ago (30?).

They've also added bonus material to all the releases.

It's a strange feeling; I know at least 1/4 of the people who have written the liner notes for these from the LYM list serv.

Ken Steiner (also from Seattle) says he is doing the notes for this one.
