I don't know if it counts but my ninth printing of the first edition of 𝘋𝘰𝘤𝘶𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵
𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘛𝘺𝘱𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘜𝘕𝘐𝘟 𝘚𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮 - 𝘝𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘮𝘦 𝘐𝘐 - 𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘱, 𝘮𝘷, 𝘮𝘴 & 𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘧𝘧 is a
favorite as it makes me remember being young and wanting to learn more about computers and
is still useful today.
It's a hardback copy with a very slightly damaged spine but that aside, looks almost
new. As an art & design guy, I love the AT&T logo of the time which appears twice
in the first few printed pages. It still has a McGraw Hill bookstore price sticker for
$31.95 on the back cover. I love it anyway!

As someone who has been quite attentive to the
documentation situation with UNIX, I've managed to build out a pretty appreciable
library of historic works. Among my most treasured bits are my 3B20S Release 4.1 manual
and Bell Labs copies of the Lions's Commentary.
What do folks have around that you're particularly thrilled to have among your
UNIX-y possessions?
