Good luck finding one.
Books are everywhere, collectors, ebay, amazon, garage sales, libraries.
Just because it isn’t convenient, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
The Internet is convenient and google/Wikipedia is easy to use so those are the areas that can be easily manipulated.
Plus the prices go high enough to discourage any but the serious, and they won’t buy more than one copy.
I think the public libraries, or at least the FRIENDS of the public libraries have a huge scam going. A library will no longer check out books that have significantly appreciated in price, so where do they go?
IMO, to the “Friends of the Library” folks.
