redbook

Yup. It's a good book.

Yup......when I first got one.......it certainly educated me and became my travelling "bible"....not really a "price line".......but EVERYTHING is there! My dad's old Blue book from the 1970's was all I had before........and that was NOT a good reference guide....(neat to compare though)

I still remember reading The Red Book when I was a kid.

Interesting "find" there BadThad!

Now here is my not so interesting Red Book story... A week or two ago I was watching The Celebrity Apprentice and their task involved Redbook Magazine. Of course when I first heard them utter "Redbook" that night, I got very excited, only to be quickly disappointed.

I agree that the wealth of information is invaluable. I am fairly upset that the greysheet has become available to everyone with $4. The problem is that people don't realize how the hobby works and that these are static price guides and cannot be deviated from.

The Red Book Lists the 1994 at 225.00

When will 2009 Red book be out? I thought it was usually in April sometime?
