I just received an email from ABEBooks.com, stating that:
The Hugo Awards and the Nebula Awards are the traditional yardsticks for fantasy and science fiction writing. Since 1953 when the Hugos began, (the Nebulas started in 1965) there have been 82 titles awarded one or the other prize – and 19 titles with the distinctive honor of winning both. We’ve listed them all for your perusal.
The Fine Books Company in Rochester, Michigan, is offering first editions of all the Hugo and Nebula Award-winning novels for a cool $116,530. From Asimov to Zelazny, every book which won either (or both) award is here. And that’s not all.
The listing includes 126 books, and 95% of them are signed or inscribed, and in fine or better condition.
David Aronovitz, from The Fine Books Company, describes the collection “as a unique gathering of books that has never been offered for sale anywhere before and in all likelihood will never be offered again.”
Some of my favorite books are included:
