I've been around for a few years but hadn't posted anything on my own collection.

There are only a few shelves that I have photos of but I'll try to post pictures of the other ~5 bookcases of limiteds sometime in the future.


Dark Tower books including first printings, artist editions and King signed editions starting with DTVII. (Matching Wind Through the Keyhole not pictured)

Most of my Joe Hill limiteds including all lettered editions (Voluntary Committal and Pop Art are the wrapped red books).

My favorite author China Mieville. Most proofs not pictured.

Thanks for the kind words.
Here are most of the other shelves from the collection.

Most are signed limited/lettered editions with a few signed trades thrown in. Many of the Easton Press are signed (including Anne Rice, Asimov, Card, Bradbury and Vonnegut- among others).

Thanks!
The balls pictured are 3000/4000 strikeouts and 300 wins.
Although, on the other side of the room is a bookcase-sized display holding a complete set of 500 HR club, among others...

Thanks guys!
There are five volumes out now so that is the complete set. When everything is said and done, there should be 7 main volumes total.

Great job on finding the lettered The Graveyard Book. I wish they had made a gift edition available as well.
