Got my copy from Amazon just in time for the weekend.
This is a real treasure trove. I don't think I've read any of the material before, which is amazing considering how much of JB's DC stuff I have.

So I found this at a used bookstore for a song last week. Not sealed but in
impeccable condition. Very excited. I noticed the LEGENDS-based cover
but then looking thru the insides, discovered LEGENDS wasn’t collected
here at all. Very confusing. Still happy tho as there are a couple of things I
didn’t have that are in it.

That is a bit puzzling why LEGENDS wasn't included, despite the cover.  Most likely it's because it was already available in a collected edition.  

If anyone is looking for LEGENDS, I believe the trade might be out of print or otherwise prohibitively expensive, However, LEGENDS was also included in the recent DC FINEST: SUICIDE SQUAD: TRIAL BY FIRE collection.

Not long after I started on Superman, DC asked me to participate in the assembling of a hardcover “Greatest Stories “ volume. So, with a couple of real editors I sat down and searched thru the DC archives. We found a couple of dozen stories—and were promptly told we couldn’t use half of them because they’d been reprinted too often!!

You can actually buy the Legends 30th Anniversary Edition in Kindle format for 9.99.

Now while I have a kindle I use to read digital comics, I am also able to use the Kindle app on my pc to read it that way as well.  I kinda like it that way.

I sent 100% Kindle a good few years ago now (back when Comixology was
still around).
It’s so easy to get comics I fancy reading (by and large - there are some
really weird omissions such as JB’s Jack Kirby’s Fourth World and Demon
series) and the sales are incredible.
Wait a couple of weeks and I can guarantee that Legends will be £2.99.
