    Fantastic additions! I need to add some finer copies of Lovecraft's works to my collection someday too. I also love the book shelves.

    Thanks Dan. Yeah, I've get very interested in Lovecraft's Arkham issues recently, they're very nice collectible editions.

    And with these two books (thanks to a generous member here), I have completed my Stephen King UK 1st Editions. (I'm still astounded at how difficult it has been for me to get these two books in 1st edition).

    "A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King

    Yeah man, condition is VG++ NF on all of it. Paper is yellowed but no foxing on any. Some tape repairs on a DJ, but took me a long time to notice where the seller meant.

    Cheers Dez, have you got a focus with collecting him? Firsts? Limiteds? I'm interested in finding out about some of his limiteds, but there doesn't seem to be many that I can see.

    Yeah, strange isn't it? I haven't collected any other Arkham yet but starting on Lovecraft has opened me up to this publisher. I've noticed some authors that I like that are published there, such as Robert Bloch and Clark Ashton Smith. Starting on this collecting road opens up a whole new world of financial pain. Do you collect Arkham, Michael?
    I know I have several Arkhams, but I can't remember what else. Have to let you know in January - I put away those and my Poes to make room for holiday decorations!

    Here are some signed King I've been lucky to grab over the past 3 months or so...

    EoW 1st / 1st (Thanks to Chad - cit74)



    Hearts



    Different Seasons 1st / 1st US




    And here are my favourites: A US Dance Macabre and UK Firestarter, both inscribed to King's daughter Naomi's school teacher. (Thanks to Bob - carlosdetweiler - for his help and advice regarding these, some month back, before he unfortunately left these parts).

    Here are some more H.P. Lovecraft Arkham House 1sts editions that I've acquired over the past few months.

    Collected Poems. Published in 1963 in an edition of 2,013 copies. A "best of" Lovecraft poetry.

    The Lurker At The Threshold. A novel by August Derleth apparently based upon fragments of Lovecraft's work he died before completing. Published in 1945 in an edition of 3,041.

    The Dark Brotherhood and Other Pieces. A collection of stories, poems and essays by Lovecraft and other "weird fiction" contemporaries. Published in 1966, 3,460 copies.




    Marginalia. This was the third collection of Lovecraft's work published by Arkham House. Published in 1944, it's not easy to find fine copies of this book and this copy is close to fine. 2,035 copies printed.




    And finally, 3 Tales of Horror. This is basically a "Limited Artist Edition" of 1,522 copies, published in 1967 and illustrated by Lee Brown Coyne. It contains the stories Colour Out Of Space, The Dunwich Horror, and The Thing On The Doorstep. This copy is in gorgeous condition and also came with an original correspondence by August Derleth (directly signed) to the artist, explaining his dissatisfaction with the artist's portrait of Lovecraft.
