    I guess I can't complain because it did come with a book (albeit a small one).
    How many books will it hold?

    Was a good birthday for me! Have the other 2 F&SF issues on their way (no stickers!). The Raft is an extra copy as the Gallery still has the Raft attached inside. The Gallery copy is mint...The Long Walk, not so much

    I decided to stop by Strand Books on the way home from work and look what I found in the 48 cent paperback case:

    A perfect copy of Umney's Last Case!

    Delivery from PS books today (well yesterday but I was abroad so didnt pick up till today )

    I really want to thank PS for their assistance on this as they have replaced my 2 odd numbered books with a matching set... No 14!! I will now get #14 for all forthcoming releases!



    "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

    Two additions. One specifically King and one related:
    Finally took the plunge and got a Skeleton Crew S/L. I really like the design and feel of this book.





    Below is a painting by Robert Addison whose images were used in the Second Coming proposal. This is called McCormick Mansion #1: egg tempera on board, 17" x 25", completed in 1956.

    My first ever Lettered Editions of a Stephen King book,
    The presentation in these massive traycases is very cool,
    I love these books especially since they have the prequel of sorts & follow up to Salem's Lot

    I'm biased, but I think you landed a great looking set of books there! Congrats!
