The Most Expensive Books
"The Pictorial Webster's may be the most curious of the many volumes that have borne the name Webster's over the years. The book costs $2,600, and that's the least-expensive edition. It took the artist nearly a dozen years to create. And - perhaps most strangely for a dictionary whose entries are images - it has become an overwhelming object of desire for lexicographers."
