Book Collection: biomieg
This thread will be archived!!
Reason: I felt that this thread was not a good representation of my collection anymore since I sold so much stuff during the past two years. So I decided to remove the outdated pics but I was stupid enough to delete entire posts instead of just deleting the pics. So the conversational flow in this thread has been severly disrupted.
Jerome kindly agreed to archive this thread and I will create a new and fresh one soon. Sorry for being stupid

'Salem's Lot - with creepy cover, the first King-book I ever saw (in the late seventies):
thank you for sharing.
Very cool stuff!!! great to see some foreign covers....

I've got a russian "doloras" thats my only non English one
hope you dont mind me posting it here??
Maybe it should be in your collection????
Very impressive web page and links...could you post pics of any of those that are hard covers as I don't speak dutch and can't figure that out on all of them...
Thanks!!
Michaël - These are so great!! I'm glad you finally started a collector's thread and I look forward to you posting more stuff! Very cool.

I've considered framing the Dark Tower dust jackets. If done properly I think it could really add to a library. But the cost of good quality framing and the dust jackets themselves has often made me think better of the idea.I own a couple of mint dust jackets, among which the awesome Christine S/L one:
and also the Grant Wizard and Glass and Desperation ones, and the Desperation and Regulators trade proof dust jackets.
I was wondering whether any of you guys have considered framing dust jackets? I'm pondering the idea...
I agree about the framing costs. On the other hand, the dust jackets I own weren't particularly expensive, so...I've considered framing the Dark Tower dust jackets.

It says they have the trade W&G, but I'm pretty sure they no longer have them.
Nope, they do! Robert recently found a stack in the barn.
Oh, ok...I'd asked Karen awhile back and I think she said the ones they had then were all damaged.
The W&G one I have is in mint condition. I might get some of the other ones but right now, that's not one of my priorities
We're leaving for a two week holiday in France tomorrow
Safe travels, Michaël.
I look forward to more updates! You have a great collection.

Thanks Pam... and thanks, Pam!
Bon Voyage!
Nice collection. Thanks for starting your own thread. I enjoyed it very much. Hope your holiday is going well!
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
A collection to be proud of, Michaël, as I'm sure you are.
Us Dutchies aren't doing too bad now, are we?
And no, I don't have all Dutch hardcover editions.
I've only begun collecting those for a short while, so I've got some more collecting to do....

Thanks to all of you guys for the nice compliments.... and the two weeks we spent in France were fantastic by the way (pictures later today in an appropriate thread)!

Great addition to a wonderful collection, Michaël!

Very nice. I don't own that version but have always loved the cover.Yes! And you know what? I ran across a second copy for an equally 'low' price and I just couldn't resist... so next week (?) I'll have two instead of one
