    Default Book Collection: Cook

    This one on the left I found yesterday (07-may-11) while shopping for brodarts.
    The one on the right is my signed edition.

    That is one hot book. FIRESTARTER is one of my favorite King novels, and one of my least favorite (to put it extremely mildly) movie adaptations.
    I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

    And the people bowed and prayed, to the cell phone god they made...

    Awesome, dude, Just Awesome!!!!!!! Of course I recognize "The Mick", but I have to admit I didn't peg the second. Now that you have posted this I should start posting pics of my Yankee memorabilia in my thread.

    Merlin,
    I never got to golf with any players, but I did get to talk with them, shake the hand etc.
    Mantle was nice, his wife was... we'll just leave it at that.
    The 2nd is willie mays, he was sorta grouchy that day.

    This is my other UK pride & joy, next to my UK different seasons posted earlier.
    Took me forever to find a really nice copy (jacket mostly), pages have the typical tanning.

    Last year was an amazing year for me as a Collector, I spent way too much money, but it was an amazing amount of fun.
    I promised myself I would hold back a little this year...well maybe next year.
    This is my "Knowing Darkness" A gift from Scott Landon from this very site.
    I cannot thank you enough for your generosity Scott.

    Nice FIRESTARTER! I have also been on the lookout for a nice copy to upgrade my 'export edition' and I got one yesterday. I don't think mine looks as smooth as yours, though. It has a bit of creasing on the DJ spine ends (no shelfwear and no tears though).
