You can always post the books you’re offering in this forum or any of the dedicated Facebook collectors groups. I for one, would be interested in knowing what Joe Hill titles you have as there are always gaps to be filled in the collection :)
Cheers,

Marco, how rare is a signed hardcover copy of Hill's "The Fireman", but with the tipped-in page upside-down?
Not Marco, but just to chime in. While any misprinted copy is certainly rare compared to a non-misprinted copy that doesn't mean that it's going to be more valuable from a $$$ perspective, which is usually what folks are really asking (my apologies in advance if that's not where you were going with the question).

Among Joe Hill collectors there’s this long standing joke that unsigned copies of his books are probably more rare than signed copies ;)
To answer your question, the presigned The Fireman with upside down signature page is not uncommon (in general misprints are not more valuable) so it will be interesting only for those looking for a misprint.
