Did some fun DT shopping this week. Got myself a B&N Gunslinger Funko Pop Prototype, and also a Breaker Watch from the DT movie.

I just bought this set of 11 Waste Lands transparencies on eBay. They are a lot smaller than I expected; I have included the Shardik print from the portfolio for comparison. You can see that the...
Nice story on the It art; my new P&J is the Ned Dameron Blaine Traycase, with original scultpture, painting, and drawing:

For my SK grab bag, I asked Brian to provide something related to the Dark Tower, and I got an unbound proof of The Dark Tower Companion:

My grab bag was identical, including the lettered Pork Pie Hat. It's okay to be jealous of my collection...

In case I'm not the only one who didn't know, Gray Parrot is a man who works as a book binder. I was curious about what a "Gray Parrot" binding was; it was surprisingly difficult to get Google to...
I just read "Oh to be Alive". The book's off to a good start!
Very nice, but maybe not as nice as mine:

Very nice (although that 3rd printing in the background is sad that you don't think it's a "true" Grant Gunslinger). Speaking of Grant books...
I recently acquired two copies if Phil Hale's Goad,...
It's been a good year. I recently won this baby on eBay for $185. It has a very minor blemish on the case, but otherwise it's perfect:

I spent the last week hoping that no one would post it to the "Intriguing Auctions" thread. The title of the auction was The Gunslinger (Dark Tower #1 - Unabridged) Audio Cassettes Signed By SK, and...
Went to bed last night with a high bid of $31 on a Gunslinger Audio S/L, assuming that sniping would push it up to or over my maximum.
Woke up this morning to find that there was no sniping and I...
Well, there's a Grant book I do not have. I order new dust jackets from Grant fairly often, and I love putting new jackets on my books. However, I have screwed up a couple through over-zealous...
Sorry for the not very King-y post. New Grant books recently added:
Paperback Art of James Avati, a gigantic softcover art book
"It's Garbage Coming", a book of post cards by Jeff Jones; cover...
I've looked at this on eBay many times and thought it would be cool to own, but just decided to pull the trigger last week. It was described as:
Upon closer look, though, I recognized it as a...
I'm glad it worked out, and of course now I wish I had taken the risk :) I do the same as you, by the way, which is how I came across this book. I finance most of my collecting by finding good deals...
Although now that I've had a chance to compare to the original version, I think it works better than I was expecting it to. The colors look a little better, and I think the folding does focus the eye...
That it is. The dust jacket art is by my brother, so it's bit difficult to be completely objective. I like it, to the extent that I think it's possible to like any piece of abstract art (i.e., not...
I've been trying to get my hands on Prime Evil for my Grant collection for quite some time now. I was very happy that one appeared on abebooks a couple days ago right around issue price:
