    I think the framing and the matte match exceptionally with the coloring of the artwork. Amazing idea and you did a hell of a job with picking the perfect color coordination. Love it!
    You know I never would have chose those mats on my own but I set the piece down and the framer fell in love with the piece and started going to town. He used to own a custom frame shop in PA so i just trusted his judgement and I think it turned out amazing.

    Hey, most of you know this but Dave at Overlook Connection is selling Dark Tower portfolios with artwork by Glen Chadbourne. I was able to get both #296 and #310 to match same-number Dark Tower S/L sets. I got 3 extra copies and given discount I got, I can sell them for LOWER than Dave's offering price of $125. Anyway, here is the portfolio cover and a small pic of my #296.

    This haul just arrived from David at Betts! Thanks so much David.



    The IT portfolio is tied shut and I didn't have the nerve to untie it as I figured I would never tie it back up as neatly. The Dark man prints were still wrapped in plastic, and I didn't have the heart to open it either. Looks like there are a ton of prints. Is there anywhere someone has posted pictures of the prints from these portfolios?

    As I unwrapped the Full Dark No Stars GE, I noticed a cool effect. If you shake the book, it looks like blue "Stephen King" slides around on the slip case. I wonder if the optical effect was intentionally designed.

    Nothing big or expensive... but i LIKE IT !!!
    When I started some time ago in a new company, I discovered a small second hand shop nearby, unfortunately only with a few books and games but with the game JUNTA which I found great when I was younger.
    I visit the shop more often, JUNTA was always there and I told my colleagues and Chef that I buy the game sometimes, on an anniversary or when I leave in the company.
    This thursday my boss surprised me with the game, for my 2.5 year jubilee in the company, self packed.
    A used exterior ugly but inside great game, not expensive but a areally nice gesture.

    I just looked in here and don't know where to begin... Salem's Lettered .... Holy SHIT! I love the white traycase and the boards! Looks like a superb production. What are the end papers like?

    And that Betts haul is magnificent amd013. The Cujo S/L is actually one of my favourite S/L's. And of course you have to open the portfolios! Why would you buy them?! Do it, do it..!

    Congrats everybody...

    Great haul amd and I echo everyone else that I am jealous of that Lettered 'Salems. Something about white leather covers/traycases that I just love. Doctor Sleep is one of my favorite s/l purely on looks because of this. I just love how the white stands out on the shelf from all of the darker cases.

    A couple of recent P&J's:

    First is the Summer of Night lettered edition from Sub Press. One of my top 5 all-time favorite novels.



    Next is painting by Robert Addison (Second Coming prototype artist) titled Orpheum Theatre; 23.5" x 29" acrylic on Masonite board completed in 1984. Looks like the Orpheum has seen betters days...

    Thanks for the kind words about Orpheum Theatre; it took over two years to complete the deal.

    The painting is still in its original frame from 1984; I tend to leave them as is. The yellow/gold definitely lights a room!
    The focus of Robert Addison's artwork was primarily the play of light on buildings and houses and Orpheum Theatre is an excellent example of his fascination with light and shadow.
