Very cool!

Yegor only lettered books you collect?

[ym2000]

Dude .... Rooster....Pekka - how the heck did you do this????? Its insane!!!!!! WOW - you are awesome!

Very cool!

Yegor only lettered books you collect?

With a few exceptions. Its my creative way controlling how many books I should have in my library which is limited to one room only.

[ym2000]

I think that post should be copied and pasted by Yegor in his first post. That way, all new people can see it first if they start with the first page and Yegor can update it himself when he gets new books.
But that is amazing work Rooster.

Got it done! Now I need to learn how to add to it. Rooster is over the top. So incredible. Im thankful.

Agreed. That was nuts.

Since it's your post, you could probably just hit the edit button and do it that way. That's how I maintain my list on my front page.
But I don't have links. Just page numbers and the post number for some of my books.

[MikeDuke]

Try this. copy the web address of your first page. Then write want you want to write and highlight it. Then go to the insert link and hit
paste. And then post. That should do it. If I am wrong, I am sure Rooster could correct where I am wrong.

[Hunchback Jack]

Outstanding work, Rooster. Well done!

[lotuz]

Yegor - awesome to see you finish The Gothic Series set. So beautiful all together!!

I had forgotten when you posted The Golem - it didn't ring a bell - so I went back to find it, which was made waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay easier by Rooster, so a big +1 and some positive rep for that! Absolutely a worth collection thread to have such an index. I got lost in it for a bit just now, reliving some of the earlier acquisitions...

[Rooster]

Haha, thanks guys, I appreciate it. I was going to do a link just to the Gothics series Yegor mentioned and drop a line about someone doing it for the rest of the stuff in this thread, but then I thought, why couldn't I be that someone, so I did it, heh. Happy to help index Yegor's awesome pictures!

Editing the post is relatively straightforward. Edit your post, then to make it easier, copy and paste an existing line with the URL tags to its relevant new position on the list, and modify the text accordingly. Then get the URL address to your post by right clicking on the post number, choosing "copy link as" (or whatever it is in English), and replace the copy pasted URL with the one you got.

I'd write the URL tags here explicitly, but I actually don't know how to do that without the forum automatically converting it into a link, which kind of defeats the purpose.

EDIT: I figured out a way. See below for example, and just replace < and > with [ and ] respectively.

[ym2000]

First is something really really cool - I love Blindsight and was happy for Centipede Press to do it together with Echopraxia.
I wanted a slipcase though!!!!!! WTH! I need a slipcase Jerad!!!! LOL





Next is Elegy For Darkness by Jacqueline Carey - Grim Oak Press.
Love their stain edge treatment!

[ym2000]

Lord Foul's Bane by Stephen R Donaldson with art by Allen Morris

[ym2000]

Fire & Blood by George R. R. Martin
Subterranean Press
Mind blown. Probably the best GRRM book done by SP. Simply over the top.

[ym2000]

One of my favorite books of all time...
The Labyrinth Of The Spirits by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
The Cemetery Of Forgotten Books









And the line up all together which is by far the most admired, loved and cherished collection of books I own...

[Sulla]

Your new acquisitions look splendid, Yegor. Is your lettered Elegy for Darkness also letter G?

Do you have an idea which materials they used for the lettered Fire and Blood? Is it all leather or also cloth?

Would you have preferred that Subpress did books 2-4 by Zafon in the same style as book 1 or the other way around? Or do you prefer it the way they did it now?

[Hunchback Jack]

Wow. Such a wonderful and varied collection of editions. Congratulations!

[MikeDuke]

Those new additions are fantastic. I mean, I am really impressed with the quality. I broke my promises to myself to never look in here... OOOPPS. I just had to. I wish I could get
books like that. They just look like great productions. I wish I new about these some of these publishers before. But even if I did, right now, I sort of have to stick with Suntup.
Not a complaint by me. It's just that I know I am missing out on what might be great books printed elsewhere. Again, congrats.

[Garrell]

You always have the most beautiful books and photos of them

[Brian861]

The photography is outstanding!

[Stockerlone]

SUPERNICE NEW BOOKS, BIG CONGRATS Yegor !!!

[ym2000]

I think all my GRIM OAK books are letter G
Fire and Blood is all leather - similar to A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms
As to Cemetery Of Forgotten Books...
Of course I would have loved The Shadow style books as it still remain one of the best productions from the publisher. Its truly spectacular.
I think Bill commented that mistake was made but he does not remember how and who and when. The binder that did the book still exists today with a shops in NY and Vermont. great guy. He repaired one of Butcher lettered for me.

Thank you my friend!

Thank you! Suntup makes amazing books and I am very fortune to own some.

Ha! Thank you so much for the compliment. With this virus thing it might accelerate a bit. Or not. I might return to shooting more outside.

You always have the most beautiful books and photos of them

Thank you sir so much!

The photography is outstanding!

Thank you! It was unusually busy with arrivals and now Im in need of selling as more space needed. You got some super nice ones as well!!

SUPERNICE NEW BOOKS, BIG CONGRATS Yegor !!!

[lotuz]

YES! Your pictures of pretty books are exactly the kind of content I need right now! Maybe I'll finally get off my ass and make a non-King collection thread for others to experience some escapism as well. I'm inspired!

I'm glad you took pictures of the Peter Watts books - I think they turned out especially nicely and I like that you always capture the front boards. Lots of folks never take off the dustjackets and don't see how wonderful most of Jerad's front boards are.

Also nice pics of Fire & Blood - really shows off the nice leather. (I heard recently that GRRM wanted to have a $500 ceiling on the price for the AGOT lettered books, which is why most of the Sub Press lettered GRRM books are really just not very special. Glad they did away with that for the other books.)

Speaking of leather, I haven't experienced any of Grim Oak Press's lettered editions, and of course your photography makes them look very nice. How is the leather on those?

[ym2000]

I havent visited this thread in a while. Let get get some photos going.
First up - SUNTUP and and its amazing The Time Machine.

[ym2000]

Shirley Jackson's HHH by Centipede Press. I should have waited to take these photos until Deluxe arrives. Oh well.
