Title: Easton Press printings
Post by: MacGyver on August 12, 2013, 10:49:35 AM
Just curious about these- does anyone have any of the Easton Press printings (http://www.veryfinebooks.com/Easton_Press_Hardy_Boys_Complete_Set_p/epc410.htm) in their Hardy Boys collection?

Are they worth investing in? How do they compare to the Applewood reprints? I presume the Easton Press books are the revised text books, yes?
Thanks to anyone with any information on this.

I don't have any, but from what I've heard, Easton Press issued them for a limited time back in 1987-88.  While the covers were the original covers, apparently the texts were the revised texts.

Easton Press also issued at the same time reprints of the first six, possible twelve Tom Swift Sr books.  I haven't heard of Nancy Drew or other Stratemeyer Syndicate series being reprinted by Easton Press.

Okay- that's interesting. I didn't know they were the revised text. Thanks for the info.

Even if they are revised, it still looks cool to have the reprint of these early covers.... :) 8)
