Although my bookcollection isn't as impressive as other collections I've seen here I do like to share my treasures with you.
My collection is mostly Dutch but there are some interesting "jewels" between them.
At first my bookshelves:

At first my bookshelves:
And here some of my art:
The left drawing came together with my The Dark Tower book, bought from Michael Whelan. The right drawing came together with the Dutch version of this book.
This is the Dutch promo for Duma Key.
Nice collection, including the art work.
Hope you post photos of some of the individual Dutch editions and other books.
And here are some Dutch treasures:
This the Dutch version of "The Road to the Dark Tower" with a signed bookplate by Bev Vincent.
Love the books and the art! Thanks for sharing.
Very nice, ewald.
I can't see the second image in the your post #4, though.

John, clear your cache, or try another browser.
To clarify, the second picture is a 'The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer' poster. That is what is missing to you?
really nice collection
You can be proud of it.
Roland would have understood.
Was my fault. I uploaded the wrong name ...
I can see it now. It's the signed bookplate from Bev Vincent.

My Dutch pride:
I have send this book to Michael to sign it for me, and so he did. A Dutch signed DT edition!
A very special edition of "Blaze". It was printed for our Dutch Stephen King fanclub with a special inside cover because of our 5 year anniversery. It was limited to 200 copies. This is nr. 100.
Wow!! Too bad you couldn't get Richard Bachman to sign them!
Impressive anyway.

Nice collection ewald.
Very nice and unique collection.
___________________________________________
Here are the Dutch versions of "Riding the bullet".
The first version I had send to Stephen King to sign it. Unfortunately he stopped signing posted books so the book was returned to me, unsigned but with a reproduced letter from Stephen King. That became my first signature!
This book was one of the few hardcovers in the Netherlands. Mostly the Stephen King's were sold as paperbacks. In 2008 this changed and now there are more hardcovers, all (somehow) related to the Dark Tower Saga.
The letter I got.
This is a Dutch presentation copie. One out of 1,000 copies. The linen cover is unfortunately hard to read because it is imprinted.
This is a Large Letter Book.
Here a Dutch magazine, writing about Stephen King's accident and recovery.
Here is two pieces of merchandise. The left one is a shopping-car-coin, made for our Dutch Stephen King Fanclub. The other one is a keyringholder to promote the 1408 movie.
Here are some of my USA- and UK- collectibles.
This book I bought from Michael Whelan. He signed it in gold and added the picture I showed in the earlier topic.
This is the signed limited edition of Bev Vincent's "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly". It is nr. 341 out of 500.
This is the first edition (BCE) with the photo of Richard Bachman on the inside flap.
Later editions didn't have the picture because by then it was known that it actually was Stephen King.
The slipcased gift edition of "From a Buick Eight". Not know as Stephen King's best novel but the book looks great!
The screenplay and picturebook of my favourite novel:
The reprint of my most luxury looking Stephen King book, "The Dead Zone" with golden pages:
Sometime I'll buy the slipcase for this one ...
