Did the individual you spoke with mention anything about how extensive this series will be? Will it include everything ever written by JS or his scribes? Was there any mention of things having to be edited out in order for the Church to support the project? Your comments about the previous two volumes being redone seems to square with what's been happening at Deseret Book. Volume 1 has been unavailable for sometime now and volume two was heavily discounted for a while in order to sell them faster. I wondered for a while if the two volumes were going out of print, but your comments shed a lot of light and make all the pieces fit.

Each volume will also be made with sewn signatures instead of cheaply perfect bound like the current volumes I and II. They will also be bound in a different binding than the current ones. Sooooooo........the question is: Should those of us who bought Volumes I and II dump them? If the new volumes turn out to be edited, then the current volumes could escalate in value. But if the new ones are no different and in a binding that fits the set, then I predict the current volumes will have little value at all. What's a guy to do? There is a parallel. The Journal of Discourses was reprinted the first time by fundamentalists. They got through six volumes before the LDS Church figured out they better do it themselves. Though beautifully bound in 3/4 leather, I picked up all six for $15 a pop.

What I found interesting is that three of the broadsides were for sale in Woodward's "Bibliothica Scallawagiana" such as item 167. A few items that are more signifigant than being a handbill or broadside is found in items 131, an almanac; 161, a pamphlet by Erastus Snow; 218, 219, & 220, all JS's political pamphlets; 237, a pamphlet by Rueben Hedlock and also the first Mormon book in Welsh; 290, a hymnal broadside that was in the NYPL but not found when Dale Morgan looked for it in 1947; 345, a hymnal for Lyman Wight's colony in Texas.
