Hi Jules! I have only just stumbled upon your channel, but wanted to say thank you so much for taking the time to film these vintage Penguin walk-throughs. Such a wonderful resource and I am really enjoying hearing your insights and recommendations along the way 😊
Wow this is super interesting!! I love how big the penguin is lol, the spines look really cute when they are all together, sadly in my country we only have the normal black editions and a couple series of classics from my country in a orange color.
@@JulesBurt Brazil, i just checked it out and we do have a couple special series with different colors, however our traditional black editions are really limited compared to the english version… to the point where some “classics” dont even exist in portuguese ☹️
#20 is very interesting to us New Zealanders. It is a high country sheep station in Canterbury New Zealand. Based on Butler's time here in the early 1860s, he was at Erewhon and another station called Mesopotamia. Butler returned to the UK in the mid 1860s and was known as a homosexual too, having man to man affairs with lonely shepherds here.
The Green Aeriel is the rarest, just 3 copies known to exist. Mysterious Affair At Styles, The Thin Man are pretty tough. Glad you enjoyed the video, check out the playlist🙂
Very interesting, Jules. Do you actually read them? My own collection (much more meagre than yours) is so delicate that I daren't open them now! I particularly collect war editions with their adverts for Andrews' Salts and Black Cat cigarettes!
