Outstanding! Major congrats on a true cornerstone of small press collecting. Even with the 2 issues (which may be repairable), this is still a beautiful book.
Yes, I am with you both- Stefko has been slipping lately. I was really underwhelmed with the production on Short Stories. Although nice materials, it just felt uninspiring. And for the prices he's...
Ruling out both Charnel House editions as too costly (But, man, are they both incredible), I highly recommend Subterranean's J.K. Potter illustrated edition. They were easily had fairly cheap for...
I don't have a copy of Last Call for you but I did get an extra copy of Medusa's Web S/L in a grab bag. If you're interested I could give you a great deal on that.[/QUOTE]
That is one of the...
Oh boy- look out! Powers is great- and he has some of the most desirable editions out there... Just beautiful books.
It looks fine. I have one like yours on my Fevre Dream limited. It just looks like it was one of the last ones they had to do before going home for the night :orely:[/QUOTE]
Lol. Yeah, my Fevre...
Nice haul, Becca! Medusa's Web (which I actually just received from CD in one of their 50% off sales) is a really pretty book! Nicely designed and executed. MY slipcase, however, looks a little......
That's awesome but too rich for me![/QUOTE]
Awesome! I've never seen one come up for auction before. What an iconic book. Even beyond the beauty and the price- you just never see these trade very...
Yep, I agree. CP really seem to be hitting their stride.
Wow, obviously a "batch" was off enough to be a problem. Bummer. Hopefully you get your copy asap. And, even though you'll have to wait a bit- I'll bet your copy is spot on perfect- even better than...
Mine appears to be the same as every other picture I can find online- just a tad askew where the "Keyhole" die cut outs meet. Really not an issue at all. Even my Hill House books, which I generally...
Wow, thanks so much for the update. I hadn't heard this. I just received my copy yesterday, as the USPS decided to send it back and forth across the country a couple times just to make it...
Becca- that is interesting. Where did you hear that about the slipcases? Does that mean that Centipede is holding up shipping half the print run or something?
Thanks for posting pics- especially under chaotic circumstances! Much appreciated for all of us dying to get a glimpse of it. Bummer about the flaw- inside front cover you say? So the endpaper? I'm...
That is surprising- his getting the book that long ago. Interesting. Thanks!
Wow. I had seen the Subpress pics, but not these on FB. Thanks for posting! And, how the heck did you find elusive photos of this book on a Tasmanian Book Dealer's FB Page! Weird, and cool!
The...
It is a truly great time travel novel, and has always been in my top 5 list of ANY novels I've read (his wonderful Pirate book, On Stranger Tides is also squeezed into that short list!). But, these...
Thanks for the pics! I did go check 'em out in your collections thread. That is a sweet set of books. I'm a fairly "deep" Powers collector, and don't have that lettered set. I like that traycase!

Ohhh, those are going to be nice. Please shoot a couple pics when you get 'em a get a chance!
