I don't have an exact count, but well in excess of 500. The original print run was 1500. Some 200-250 were damaged or defective and we got our prorated money back. A few others have turned up defective or damaged over the years (my basement is dry, but mildew is still possible when the humidity gets extremely high, I usually try to find a good non-paid home for such copies). We've sold somewhere between 400 and 500. I think a few years back, when I started turning over to others, we counted something like 45 boxes with 15-20 books per box in them (not all the boxes are the same size, for complicated reasons). A few boxes have since been emptied. At current rate of sale, we can easily last another 10 years before we need a new edition due to lack of copies. On the other hand, sales recently have picked up, and I have 5 books to send even with the cancellation. I can't recall the last time that I had 5 or 6 book orders received within a month. lojbab
