Book collection: WeDealInLead

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Nice items. And also a nice hardwood floor!

WeDeal....
You've been pretty busy since I was last here.
Congrats on everything, I especially like Gunslinger 1st, Talisman, & slip-Gerald's game.

I like those Viking DT re-issues. I only have the first one. Your pic makes me want to pursue the rest of them.

What is the story on CELL? Is that a re-issue in trade paperback, with a number line starting with 1?

[WeDealInLead]

Yep, trade sized, full number line. I didn't even know it was re-printed. I was looking for a trade of TWTTK at a local Wal-mart and found Cell too.

Very nice collection!

...and yes, those Mist albums are VERY hard to find. The only two that I know of in collections here are mine and Ralph's.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Aha! That is an ALBUM. I meant to ask about that. I will commit a sin and be envious of it. I have some of those paperbacks (Nivens and Zelaznys) but mine are all in mint condition. (well, almost all of them anyway)

[Brice]

Yes, the album was done by ZBS. It is very awesome! There was one listed on ebay semi-recently for five or six hundred.

[WeDealInLead]

Each of those cost .50 to a buck so I'm OK with wear and tear. I don't collect their books but I'm a big fan of their stories. There are a few sf classics I'd like to get eventually though.

Brice, did it sell? I made an offer of $50 and the seller accepted.

I don't honestly know nor if it was the same copy, but that is a really good price.

What is the variant UTD printing?

[WeDealInLead]

Just grey letters on the cover instead of white.

[Cook]

Blasphemy ? not really, I have most the classics myself.
His early works are pretty good. lightning, bad place, phantoms, midnight, watchers, etc.
lately.. horrendous, swill.
Ridiculous dialog, throw in a cause & don't forget the dog.... that's Koontz.
(books pictured below are WeDealInLead's)... not sure what I did there?

A few more goodies. I know it's blasphemy to like Koontz and King but I do, so here's some Koontz hardcovers. All first printings:

Great, another first edition to look for. Very nice collection you have.

NAILED IT! It's so true. I liked 77 Shadow Street though.

I haven't read that one............. hmmm, might give it a try.

[Shannon]

Those are some nice New Additions you got there, friend!

[Bad Penny]

And, yep, it possible to like both Stephen King & Dean Koontz concurrently - I know I sure do, and have for near on 30 years

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Nice pictures. I never could find that version of CELL though - frustrating!

[biomieg]

I'm glad to see the Pet Sematary arrived in good condition!

[WeDealInLead]

Thanks y'all.

Ur2nd, I can buy you one and mail it if you're stuck.

[Stockerlone]

Congrats, NICE New Additions !!!

[Shannon]

Those first two look great together. Post all your new stuff! It's free to post pictures, I promise!

[ChadbourneFan]

Impressive collection!

[WeDealInLead]

Thanks and thanks. These two anthos have matching spines. Unfortunately, I have so little room left that I already bagged these and put them away. Same with non-King stuff. Only 3 more years until I have a new house with a library room,ha.

[Brice]

For future reference: We want to see every book.


I love anthologies too. Very nice additions!
