D_Mac 9,302 #1 Posted January 2 So for Christmas I was gifted a copy of Straight From The Horse's Mouth by Michael Martino. Great book. I have a few questions that I can't find answers to. Maybe Michael himself or some members can help. I understand there are 3 editions. I also saw that there was a 200 print special edition of Ponds 90th birthday. That edition was signed and numbered by Mr. Martino. My copy is signed and numbered but has a Special Limited Collectors Edition seal on the front of the book. I don't see any information on this edition. Anyone else have one of these? Also is the 3rd and final edition different then the other 2 editions? Does it have more pages ? I'm just curious. @Wheelhorsestory maybe you can chime in. Thanks. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yours looks like any other second edition, except it is numbered and has Mike's signature. And of course the sticker on the cover.

c-series don 10,037 #6 Posted January 2 I have all three books, but I never saw one with the Special Limited Edition seal before? I have no idea what makes it different than the rest? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D_Mac 9,302 #7 Posted January 2 Well I did find somewhere that there is a special release of a Cecil Ponds 90th birthday edition. The book was numbered and signed by Michael. Pretty sure it was the 3rd edition. 200 copies. Anyone have or have heard of that one? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JCM 10,227 #9 Posted January 3 I feel special, mine has the slip cover too. Not commemorative issue. Was not aware of that Bob . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D_Mac 9,302 #13 Posted January 3 So the Special Limited Edition is only special because of the decal and the number and signed by author. Nothing in the book is different then the regular 2nd edition. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
