Nice ARC's. Congrats

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Thanks Garrell, Mike and Brian.
No reason, just felt like taking a picture during the ice storm:



Much bigger version of this in my member album.

That UK Rage looks perfect! I saw that there were some new King paperbacks out at Wal-Mart last night. Can't recall the titles off the top of my head but I'm sure you probably already have them, Steve.

Nice! I see a Twin Peaks book nestling behind the King books. Do you have others? Big fan.

Aside from that book, the only other one is David Lynch's ROOM TO DREAM.
However, I have many Twin Peaks DVDs, VHS tapes, laser discs, episodes I taped back when I had a 10 foot satellite dish in my backyard (now long gone), and even a box of trading cards.
The pictures are in this book thread, but you'd have to dig through it to find them.
And of course - my avatar.

The quality of the books you have never ceases to amaze me.
Soft covers that you would search for everywhere, you have innumerable copies.
I never get tired of seeing this standard.

[jon10g]

Cool.

Thanks guys.
My latest Harlan Ellison proof, SHATTERDAY, which comes between Saturday and Sunday:

[MikeDuke]

Just looked that one up. Looks pretty cool with a number of interesting sounding stories.
Congrats

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Thanks Mike.

Got my UK hardcover of DANSE MACABRE today from Michaël, shown here surrounded by the dancing Danse Macabre troupe:

[Brian861]

Very nice, Steve! Congrats!

[vincent]

congrats Steve,
that Harlan Ellison proof looks just the way I like them: as plain as they come.
and congrats on the addition to your Danse Macabre collection. I love that book.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Thanks Brian and Vincent!

I received my Canadian Viking edition of THE REGULATORS from Richard today, and I love it!
I have given up trying to put the King books in order any more. Moving up to over 1800 volumes every time I buy an older King book is just too hard, and I am always fearful of damaging them. So from now on, they just get lined up on an unused shelf.

[Brian861]

And I thought it was a PITA moving my 200+. Congrats on scoring the Viking!

[MikeDuke]

Can I ask what's special or different about the Canadian version? Were there less of them, or is it that it's just from Canada. Just asking.

I'm not sure what the print run was, Mike. I just have it in my collection as a publisher variant.

Got you. So the Canadian version vs the USA version. And since it's from Canada, it's considered a different version (variant) of the book.
Understood

[Hunchback Jack]

Congrats on the U.K. Danse! A nice copy of a tough edition to find!

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Also, the REGULATORS is published by 'Viking', not 'Dutton'.

Thanks, Peter, it is!

[Randall Flagg]

Thanks, Peter, it is!

I'm sure I missed it, but who said it was published by Dutton?

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

I meant the US version has 'DUTTON' on the dust jacket spine and the Canadian has 'VIKING' on it.
I should have been more precise.

[Hunchback Jack]

BTW I applaud your choice of Enterprise. The Refit/Ent-A incarnation is my favourite starship in all of Trek.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Thanks. That's just one of my many Enterprise ships.

The mail lady brought these to me today from Amazon.com, both 1st printings, total cost $38.80:

[MikeDuke]

I have to admit, it is a cool cover. Congrats on getting both 1st ed.
