    Default Book collection: firemonkey66

    I suppose it's about time to create one of these threads. My collection is small and somewhat fluid, which is why I haven't posted it before. I guess my personal collecting philosophy is that I collect books that I like for one reason or another, but I only keep the ones that 'feel right' once I have them. That probably sounds weird, but it's the best way to sum up my collection

    As a preface, all the books are first editions, except for one of the night shifts, it's a first edition jacket on a non-first. Only 3 of the King firsts are signed, but I'd say 75% of the non-King books are. The S/L books are all real number or letter, except for one PC copy of The Devil Next Door.

    The Insomnia and Nightmares & Dreamscapes (on the right, not the proof) are signed. The dust jacket for Night Shift is a first edition jacket, I'm not sure what edition the actual book is. While on the subject, if anybody has a naked first edition Night Shift in good condition, PM me

    Sphere is one of my favorite books. And I'm a big fan of David Wong. The proof to the far right is Into Thin Air.

    I really liked The Tommyknockers and my favorite Robert McCammon book is Stinger. Boy's life was a close second.

    Um, I need to stop stacking stuff...and buy another bookshelf. The traycase for the S/L From a Buick 8 is filled with miscellaneous folded dust jackets, no book in there And I have the poster that went along with the first Folio Society printing of Dune somewhere.



    My one of six EoTD canvas prints signed by David Palladini that I won for my atrocious unboxing video when I got my lettered EoTD art portfolio. I'm not sure if I actually successfully tweeted my video in like 6 terrible parts to Suntup seeing as how it was the first and only time I used Twitter, but Paul quite nicely counted it as an entry regardless

    The tubes in back have dust jackets in them. A full Dark Tower set with multiple duplicates of the non-rare ones, a Firestarter, and some Christines, if I remember correctly. And the CD Salem's Lot artist edition has a David Palumbo remarque in it (see page 2 for a pic).

    The lettered IT has a full page color remarque by Erin Wells in it. The fox was a Christmas decoration that obviously needs to be put away since it's May

    My shelf of honor, these are some of my favorite books The Seuss book is lettered, the S/L IT matches the IT portfolio below it, and the letter of the lettered John Dies at the End matches my Suntup & Dragon Rebound set (probably no good reason to mention that, except that I like it). And you can't see it, but all the CD Doubleday art portfolios are behind the Rebounds, Christine, and Firestarter. The Firestarter is also signed by Michael Whelan (page 2 for pics).

    What edition of SLEEPING BEAUTIES is that in picture number 13?
    I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

    It's the back of the CD slipcase for the trade edition. Just a first, not signed or anything.

    For a moment there, I thought I missed something! I put mine the other way. You have some great stuff there.

    Haha, nope, you didn't miss anything. I like it when the back of a slipcase has some decoration, so I'll switch between front and back depending on the day Right now I'm in a 'back of the slipcase phase.'

    I don't think this piece of furniture was meant for books, but it's better than stacking them on top of other books. The green ‘book’ is a numbered Suntup EoTD art portfolio that matches the number of my Philtrum Press EoTD. Haha, probably an unnecessary match since the artwork is different. Worked out well for me, though, since it got me a numbered S/L Misery!

    These aren't technically King-related, but I bought them because of the Dark Man subject matter, so what the hell.
