Ask HN: What is the most obscure book you own?

4•Kovah•3h ago
Just had an interesting conversation about book collecting this weekend: we asked each other which of their books is so obscure or rare that it's unlikely anybody else you know owns a copy.

For me, it's a printed copy of von Neumans "First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC", the groundwork for modern computer architecture. Bought it from Kronecker Wallis, a tiny Spanish publisher.

I have a bunch of first edition magazines. Too many to list here. Collecting was easy. I was in bookstores, and figured that any first edition was worth the nominal price.

If anyone's interested,
