Which Nero Wolfe books are rare?

Tuesday, April 7th, 2009

My local used bookstore has lots of Nero Wolfe (Rex Stout) books. I know most books in the series are out of print, and some are really rare (I'm not talking about first editions or anything like that, just hard to find out of print books).
