Book Collection/Member Appreciation: Brian861

[Brian861]

Jerome kindly archived my first collection thread due to me having to sell off quite a bit of it. In full disclosure, I'm still able to gather the small everyday things (the cheap stuff) or hang on to the things that really aren't worth taking the time to sell as they have little resell value. For those of you that have purchased my valuable stuff, I can't express enough my appreciation for you. It truly helped my family and I in a great time of need. It has also helped me refocus on what is most important and to refocus on where I want my collection to go in the future.

With the gift that my Secret Santa purchased for me, it really inspired me to do something a little different with my collection thread. To show my appreciation for my fellow members who have taken the time and effort to obtain things for me or have offered them in trades, other sells, etc.

Dedicated to you:

[Brian861]

From our great friend over at CD. A personal inscribed copy that Brian provided the shipping for both ways. He also included a little bonus :) Thanks, Brian!

The WHSmith copy of TBOBD along with the UK copies EOW were obtained for me by our favorite goblin, Simon. Simon also held onto the copies of EOW until Jeff was done with the slipcases, shipping them all together. Thanks, Simon!

The infamous UK CTCC anomaly/derailed copy provided to me by Eric for the retail price plus shipping cost. Thanks, Eric!

My wife's family being of German descent; I thought it would be pretty neat to maybe start collecting German SK copies. Not sure if/how far I'll continue this pursuit but thanks to Frank for sending this over to me. Thanks, Frank!

An awesome surprise from Chris when he revealed this little nugget! I waited til it arrived before I saw it. Chris went on to obtain a copy for himself at a later signing. Thanks, Chris & Julie!

I forgot to put this one up but I believe Jon helped me obtain several of the UK copies shown. I know he won a few UK eBay bids for me back in the day; just not sure exactly which ones. Thanks, Jon all the same!

Looks like you may need another copy of the U.S.A. REVIVAL check your back cover & see if it says bookstore or Barnes & Noble.

But a 1st/1st with the right printer for B&N? :p

It's a 1st/1st but didn't realize this book had two different print locations.

Thanks, Simon for picking this up for me and sending it over! Most things from the UK only take about a week or two to arrive. From the tracking, looks like Charlie spent almost a month in Chicago. Must have been taking in the sites I reckon.

Thanks, brother! The series is awesome though I wasn't really that impressed with the Small World one shot. I've never been much of a Lovecraft fan so I honestly couldn't say. Best guess would be little to none solely based on what I've heard about Lovecraft. You'd have to get an opinion from someone in the know. Better yet, read the series for yourself and enlighten me! :)

P.S. How are the "boys" doing ><

Yeah, I think I might give this series a shot... And the boys are surprisingly fantastic - 24 hours and I can walk almost normally (but can't dance yet)... :)

Totally stoked about these arrivals today from Water Street Books. Can't say enough good things about the folks over there, especially Stef. And to Joe of course for taking the time to stop by and personalize them. Really hoping he tours near my area for the Strange Weather promotion.

http://www.thedarktower.org/gallery/data/903/Joe_Hill_Cases_2.JPG

Impossible to find a non-custom slipcase that will fit bagged and boarded comics. So I asked Jeff to make me few for a test run. He nailed it of course! From left to right: Small World, Tales From the Darkside, and my Locke & Key collection so far. I doubt I'll ever find all the variants for that series but it's fun for me to try. It does help that they usually list all the variants inside the cover.

From eBay has well with the blacked out price. I guess there are now non-blacked out editions as well. Probably could remove the marker with a little Goo-Gone. Not sure if I should do that though:

I'm not usually into the promo stuff but when Jeremy posted the auction, I took a chance on it for S&Gs. Turned out I won the auction and it's really a cool item! It no longer works as I suspect it wasn't meant to last long. Seems near impossible to change the battery without destroying it.

Yeah, it's something "odd" that I discovered a few years back. I dont remember how the subject came into conversation with my wife (scottish), but one day I discovered that she doesnt cross the 7s when she writes (and this is the very first time I noticed that it's not crossed on computers).

Which seemed odd to me that at the time because, I believe that in France we all grow up learning that 7s are crossed!


Nice book by the way!

Thanks, Jeremy! I've mentioned it before but my 9th grade Algebra teacher insisted that we cross our 7s or our grade would be reduced. Since then, it's been as natural to do so as breathing. It is irritating that it isn't crossed on the keyboard lol. I can't say with 100% certainty, but I believe Owen might the only one that does this out of the three or maybe four counting his mother. I don't recall ever seeing Steve or Joe cross their 7s on a dated sig. Would be interesting to learn where Owen picked up the practice.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

I live in the stone age. My temperatures are Fahrenheit, unless they're Centigrade (not that other abominable word), My sevens and twos are totally distinguishable from each other so no stinkin' crosses (or batches either, for that matter) are needed or wanted. I go to movies to WATCH the movie, not talk or kick the seat in front of me or clear my throat every ten seconds or fidget around in my seat or use my cell phone (I don't have one anyway), and I cater to political correctness only by putting a dreaded cross through my zeros! We must all kowtow to society somewhere.

[jhanic]

I learned to cross my sevens in the Army. Been doing it ever since.

Thanks, Alan! And yes, it's pretty cool.

Edit: It also reminded me of those little New Testament bibles from my childhood.

The boys answered the What. Hopefully it explains the Why :)

Lovely inscription! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Great new additions, Brian. I think it's amazing how many pages ( I think 700+ ) they managed to get in the Flipback Misery. The pages are like tissue paper.

[Stockerlone]

Congrats, the signed BOB is nice... and the Misery flipback book is COOOL !!!

Thanks, man! I originally wasn't going to buy the BoB from Sebastian due to it being inscribed. But he made me an offer I couldn't refuse. And then I thought, Peri would appreciate that hell of this! :)

Don't you love when CD boxes randomly show up at your door?! Very nice, Brian!

Yes! Much better than that "Oh shit!. I forgot to pay that bill!" notice. Plus it's already paid for :D They got me again today via the CDCC offer. I didn't participate very much in the CDCC last year via their coupons. So far this year, they're killing me!

True, true. Didn't stop me from scraping together every penny I could justify to get some though!

3rd year in a row that I missed out on the GCs. The offer always comes up between paydays :cry:

[Hunchback Jack]

I was a CDCC member for two or three years running, then decided to skip it last year. I'm back for CDCC8.

(And very nice adds, Brian!)

Thanks, Jack! The thought of not being in the know, whether I can afford what's offered or not, would drive me insane!

Thanks, brother! And R.I.P to Malcolm Young :cry: I bought my first AC/DC cassette while on a church outing :lol:

At a Church outing?! Love it - Wasn't Highway to Hell, was it?

Now that would have been ironically hip! But no. It was Blow Up Your Video. The entire back catalogue soon followed then everything from that point forward. Never got the chance to see 'em live I'm sorry to say.

Very nice new stuff Brian, CONGRATS !!!

I still refuse to read Joe Hill, because if I get started on another author I'll have to buy a new house for more shelf space!
Nice books though.
