August 17, 2005: Rare "Great Gatsby" Edition up for Grabs
"A first-edition copy of F Scott Fitzgerald's Jazz Age novel The Great Gatsby sat in a box of unsorted volumes at a US book shop for almost two months before it was noticed, and now the bookseller hopes it will bring more than $US50,000 ($A65,000).
"If you're a serious collector, you have to have this book," Baldwin's Book Barn operator Thomas Baldwin said."
