I think it was a around a thousand at most. I don't really remember even any exact numbers either.
I could be wrong though.

My understanding is that only two of his books sold; One sold 300 copies and the second one sold only two copies.

I don't know how many sales have resulted from the recent brouhaha surrounding this dead monster. Before the Big Media machine ramped up their propaganda campaign, his most successful book had sold only 330 copies.
I wish I'd bought one of his less successful copies. I'd have mailed it to him in prison for him to sign, pretending to be a clueless youngster "saved from the gang lifestyle through his wisdom in prose". Then, after his inevitable demise, I'd flog it on ebay and make a tidy bit of cash from the bleeding heart idiots who supported that monster. Such idiots do not deserve to keep their money.
If only I'd thought of this plan about a year ago.

How about we let Tookie rest in peace. Anyone with the ability to take another life is a tortured soul, to say the least. There is no purpose in beating a corpse. He got the full measure of what he deserved.

Tookie is dead. Life is good. Murder never pays, so I must simply sing:
Took Took Tookie GOODBYE
Took Took Tooke DON'T CRY!
Muscles just don't cut it
You're a wannabe Mandela
Truth is that your scared sh@t
But HEY YOU ARE DEAD NOW!!!
OK, it doesn't rhyme, but it's true!

I heard that it was somewhere in the 300 to 350 range. There is not a big demand for books that have only one syllable words in them

How many books did Tookie sell? Check your library. Des Moines has 9 of them in the children's non-fiction category.

Hey, some respect for a great author, please. Tookie spent years composing that stuff. Now he's busy decomposing.

gm probably sold more oldsmobiles this year than tookie didbooks. i suggest he does a book signing tour.
To: airedale
According to Amazon, Tookie wrote only 8 books.
The first, "Life In Prison" comprises only 80 pges and is #932 on Amazon sales.
"Redemption" is #6,812.
"Gangs & Abuse Of Power": 24 pages. #7,330
"Gangs & Weapons": 24 pages. #110,901
"Gangs & Violence": 24 pages. # 232,800
"Gangs & Your Friends": 24 pages. #535, 890
"Gangs & Self Esteem": 24 pages. #593,362
"Gangs & Wanting To Belong": 24 pages. #950,393
"Gangs & Your Neighborhood": 24 pages. #680,113
It sure does look like Tookie was running a last failed appeal scam and didn't sell many books at all, airedale.
Jack.
