SCARLETT CURATED CONTEMPORARY BOOK COLLECTION

…. Scarlett owns several autographed first editions. Only a few truly matter.
Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell. First edition boldly signed. Excellent condition. Original dust jacket intact. Five thousand dollars—perhaps more in a competitive bidding scenario.
To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. First edition, signed. Excellent condition. Original dust jacket. Similar range. Calmly powerful.
The crown jewel: The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway. First edition. Signed. Not pristine—time has left its marks—but formidable. That one could bring ten thousand dollars. Perhaps more.
Scarlett is not given to illusions. She could assign any number—even a million—but until cash changes hands, these are paper, ink, and hope. [Chapter 33 — Thursday, March 15, 1984]
