    Bought two from CD, but was sent 3rd prints. I wasn't going to worry about it, but then Brian reached out to everyone that got 3rd prints and made it right. Told us to keep the 3rd prints as well. Boom! 4 copies. (+ the S/L version on the way)

    I'm more curious about the 100 copies of 'Salems Lot! Great display actually. I love how each book is special and has its own space to breath.

    Looks great, I'd love to have space to lay my books out like that.
    One question (and I really should know the answer) What is the book to the right of the EOTD S/L ?\

    EDIT: I zoomed in. It's The Stand Portfolio
    "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

    Nice display. Love the corner bookcase with the Doubleday firsts (I assume firsts) in the wood slipcases. Nice Job!

    Ha! I hadn't noticed that the angle really does make it look like another book. I would have wondered the same thing if I were you

    Very nice! I've never had a piece framed before, though I've bought and framed some pieces myself. How much does it cost, on average, to get it done for a piece that size or slightly larger?

    Depends on if they are running a sale or not. I think this was a little over a hundred but some times you can get it super cheap when they run big sales. I got By the Silver Waters of Lake Champlain and I think that cost me about the same

    The 'Salems Lots are more a testament to my weakness than anything. I originally decided to purchase a full AE set of the Doubleday years from CD and a full gift set. Then somewhere along the way I acquired another AE Carrie on the cheap and then got a deal on an AE 'Salems so I guess I am trying to build two sets of each with an eye toward selling one eventually if I manage to continue getting two of each as they come out. That explains the doubles of those. As for the other 'Salems on the bottom, they were bought on various whims, some as CD was announcing they were almost sold out, some after the fact when they offered remarqued copies and a 50% coupon at the same time (still not sure they meant to do that lol). Sometime soon I will sell off the extras to put toward something else.

    As for the trade hardbacks with doubles or triples, that is usually the product of trying to improve on the condition of the one I have, then never getting around to selling the original; although I always tell myself I will soon lol.

    I don't have a collection thread, but enjoy lurking around in others. It's another thing I keep telling myself i will do, but between work, wife, and 3 teenage boys time is not something I have in abundance right now.

    Love that frame, very sharp looking.

    After reading other comments regarding the orientation of the pic I can't help put see a look on Danny's face saying "...the fuck am I sideways?!?"

    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!

    I think you meant this for jsmcmullen92

    I may have confused people by posting a pic of his item rotated correctly and will delete that post to avoid further confusion.

    That said, I agree with everything you said! lol
