    Why is Michael Jackson doing his toe stand on the UK cover?
    That was my first thought when I saw the UK cover, too.

    I like the Val Kilmer signed book.

    Jeremy, congrats on your find, but I think I missed something. You said they’re just photocopies of a published book made by a random 3rd person, right? What makes them worthy of your attention?

    I was thinking the same thing. But then again, I've seen stranger things get attention (like Cheetos shaped like Harambe, for example)...

    Just to be safe, I'll be at Kinko's!

    I know that those are not speaking to many people, but in my opinion it's in par with rare obscure fanzines. Although this time, there are (supposedly) only 5 copies.
    The guy has made an actual "Pirates" series of "books" like this, "for his friends", so it's not just a one off and I guess that I like it as a french "completist".
    But it's definitely not an official release.

    "So are you a dog person or a cat person?"
    He answered: "Well, I started out as a cat person, but I became a dog person. Kinda like changing sexuality."
    I loved it.

    Other things arrived as well, one of which I've been searching for a long time and while I arrived to late to Jonathan's copy, the sticker on top gave me a hint on how to search for it:

    I bought the Joyland S/L when it first came out but didn't realize until recently how much it's gone up in value, so I figured I ought to get a slipcase while they're still available. It came today:

    Missing the Joyland S/L is one of the biggest regrets of my collecting life. I was on vacation when it was available for order and I didn't find out about it until they were gone.

    Yes, mine arrived today. Took 18 days to get, but it was worth it. I’m very happy with the overall condition.

    That's in pretty good shape considering there were 18 days to screw it up. Glad it finally arrived.
