I cross-posted this on Reddit:
I would love to have a hard copy of this book. Does anyone know about how to go about persuading the person who has the rights to print a batch?
Maybe at the time it went out of print there wasn't much of a market for it, but I'm sure there is now. I just Googled how many copies an average print run is and I read it was 3,000-5,000.
Would it help if people pre-ordered/paid?
I don't know anything about the industry.
