I know... hideous... :belial:
It literally is surreal. Goes to show that you can still find rarities among common bookstores if you just keep your eyes open!
This happened several years ago, but it's something I still feel giddy about. I used to practically live in mall bookstores in the eighties and nineties when I had nothing else better to do, and back...
I have so been waiting for this one!!
Robin Furth's The Dark Tower Concordance - Revised and Updated - signed by Robin!

Dude! Nice Demon Driven! Thinking about updating the thread in Books About Stephen King section with updated pics of your book and the tray?
I finally got off my lazy ass and took some pics of my newest stuff....

My GAWD, that's beautiful.
My wallet is recoiling in horror though. How much did that cost?
Found a really decent copy of a 1st edition Talisman, now added to my collection....

Trust me, that fish tank is SPOTLESS.
I ran it through several cleanings and air-outs until I had every drop of moisture out of it. No smell whatsoever, and I'll probably craft a hood for the top...
My Joyland Illustrated Edition showed up today...

And it's amazing what a $15 10-gal. aquarium,...
Just got this one today. It's number 179 out of 400 and in immaculate condition!

And that Robert...
Now that you mention it, that Talisman DOES stick out! LOL!
Looks like I'll need to find a replacement then. Yikes!
:doh:
And the wood frame idea... awesome case! But WOW!!! That would be...
Thanks!
I might... MIGHT... get all the slipcases together for DT I ~ VII. I won't need the slipcases for 4.5 or Eluria, and it would look far better than a clear case!
Now... how to convince...
Big thanks to The Collector.... my COTW slipcase is now protecting my book...

And now, another...
Yeah, it's a 2nd edition, but I figured for $200 it didn't look as bad.
Think I got had? Hopefully I can replace the cover.
I just won this bid on eBay for a Dark Tower - Gunslinger, just curious how I did on purchasing it. I got it for $200.

My COTW has a mylar cover on it which is why it's in such good shape (that and being kept out of the sun helps!), but I hope the slipcase still fits it. It should, since it's cut the exact same...
Speaking of slipcases... I ordered mine now...

And I found this at Wally-World along with the Back to the Future Deloreans...

Thanks guys! And I'll be getting the slipcase real soon. Don't want anything to happen to it!
Now I just need to save up for a 1st edition Dark Tower: Gunslinger and my main books will be...
My wife helped get this one just this weekend, and it's one of my "holy grail" hardbacks....
