I found this book in my late grand pops collection. It’s a first edition from Robert Bell. I haven’t seen this edition online. Does anyone have any info on it? It’s paperback and in amazingly good condition considering. Thanks ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1537745666.732739.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1537745703.377359.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1537745719.642967.jpg

Seems like there were two different covers for that book both stating first editions. There is one of each on ebay right now.

It wouldn't surprise me if there was a "Foul Anchor Archives" book store sticker on the inside front or back cover.

This is one of the early self-published treasure hunting books. I believe "Specialty Products" became the publisher of Thomas Terry's long running book series - the treasure map atlases and Doubloons.

As treasuresalvor notes, copies of your little book do regularly come on the market. Yours appears to be in average to good condition (some water spots on the back cover, for example). I'm guessing a retail price of $5 or so.

Good luck to all,

The Old Bookaroo
