Although my bookcollection isn't as impressive as other collections I've seen here I do like to share my treasures with you.

My collection is mostly Dutch but there are some interesting "jewels" between them.

At first my bookshelves:

And here some of my art:

The left drawing came together with my The Dark Tower book, bought from Michael Whelan. The right drawing came together with the Dutch version of this book.

Very nice, ewald.

I can't see the second image in the your post #4, though.

John, clear your cache, or try another browser.
To clarify, the second picture is a 'The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer' poster. That is what is missing to you?

A very special edition of "Blaze". It was printed for our Dutch Stephen King fanclub with a special inside cover because of our 5 year anniversery. It was limited to 200 copies. This is nr. 100.

Yes, indeed. But I heard that Richard only signed cheques, no books ><

Thank you all for the kind remarks. I'm very happy with what I have now.

Here are the Dutch versions of "Riding the bullet".
The first version I had send to Stephen King to sign it. Unfortunately he stopped signing posted books so the book was returned to me, unsigned but with a reproduced letter from Stephen King. That became my first signature!

http://www.stephen-king.tk/mybooks/achtbaan.jpg
This book was one of the few hardcovers in the Netherlands. Mostly the Stephen King's were sold as paperbacks. In 2008 this changed and now there are more hardcovers, all (somehow) related to the Dark Tower Saga.

http://home.tiscali.nl/ewald.schattenberg/afbeeldingen/brief_king.jpg
The letter I got.

http://home.tiscali.nl/ewald.schattenberg/afbeeldingen/skachtbaan2.jpg
This is a Dutch presentation copie. One out of 1,000 copies. The linen cover is unfortunately hard to read because it is imprinted.

http://home.tiscali.nl/ewald.schattenberg/afbeeldingen/skachtbaan3.jpg
This is a Large Letter Book.

This is the first edition (BCE) with the photo of Richard Bachman on the inside flap.
Later editions didn't have the picture because by then it was known that it actually was Stephen King.

Here is the 1e ed. paperback of "Misery". This opne has a second cover, known as "Misery's Return". Later paperbacks didn't have this beautiful second cover.
Do you recognize Stephen King as the hunk next to Misery?

This is also special. This first ed. paperback is the only one WITHOUT the name of Stephen King on the front cover. There was no need, because the writer wasn't that famous. Later on he became famous enough!

The Large Letter Book could be ordered here: http://www.groteletter.nl/boekwinkel/bestellijst.php?recal=&to_mandje=&to_bestel=&offset=&freesearch=Achtbaan

The green linen version is hard to find, but could perhaps be obtained on www.marktplaats.nl

That is however een Dutch national buying/selling site, but ... you never know
