I hope this message finds you well and is not an intrusion.
I wanted to let the group know about a scarce Schoenberg book set for sale ("Schoenberg" printed in 1937) that has a very unique provenance.
The set consists of *both* the first and second editions and there are currently no other available copies for sale worldwide. In fact, a signed 2nd edition alone recently sold for $2400 and this set (with both editions) is listed for *substantially* less.
The first edition was also the personal copy of the esteemed painter Nassos Daphnis! (and stamped as such)
Due to the scarcity of the set, unique historical provenance, as well as the fact that the bidding starts so low relative to the value, I thought that there might be some interest!
Otherwise, please excuse the interruption.
Thanks for your time and all the best,
Scott

I know that these kinds of sets are very nice, however I do not need one, and do not have the money to begin with. The fact that you are trying to sell it is strange to me, as if I did own it, I wouldn't be selling it, as it is a relic of history that shouldn't be sold unless you are in deep financial stress.
