Basically hope to acquire one of the top 2, at least 2-3 of the next tier and keep a look out for the rare UK titles. And probably expand the proof collection a little here and there. And keep an eye out for cool inscriptions. Ought to be fun!
Need to finish my never ending flatsigned collection:
Gunslinger revised
Sleeping Beauties.

2017 collecting goals? Well, I'm a small-timer, so let's see:
- Waiting for CD's The Shining to arrive
- Hoping that the better half makes good on her stated intention to permit the ordering of CD's Night Shift when it goes on sale
- Wait and see if any collectible books are among my birthday and Christmas gifts (always a possibility, never a given), which would likely include some Tolkien things, and (if very lucky) something from Folio Society.
To sum up: goals include waiting, hoping, and waiting and seeing.
Unfortunately, it's a bit of a book-hostile environment - my tendency to do things like spend several days (not all day, a bit here and there) determining precisely which translation and edition of Les Miserables I want, despite knowing I'm unlikely to read it in the next 3 years, draws scorn. (As it happens, I'm leaning toward the Donougher).
You can't be aloof until you advertise.
WOW! Nice acquisitions!

Thanks! I was just going to update here. Did you decide that we need Gunslinger Revised? I know you were asking on a different thread, so I added it to my list. But did not know what was decided.
I also want to complete my signed Charlie the Choo Collection. CTCC SDCC signed. CTCC 1st Edition signed. Now I need the UK Limited Edition signed. 2 out of 3 drives me crazy.
"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
