Yesterday, two books I had been waiting for showed up.

First is the signed edition of Frank Bello's autobiography. Frank is the bassist of one of my favorite bands - Anthrax. I'm not expecting a lot because most so many musician's autobiographies seem to be lacking and very "thin" in content. But it'll go well with my two signed Scott Ian books.

The second book I feel kind of lucky to have even been able to order - had no idea it existed until a buddy of mine sent the link.

The signed version of The Art of Neil Gaiman and Charles Vess' Stardust. I only flipped through a little bit, but I love this whole package. Signed by both Gaiman and Vess, and includes a beautiful signed print from Vess. I really wish I could go back in time to that day I found myself at the Comic Art Museum in San Francisco where they had all of the original artwork from Stardust.

Great additions, Congratulations!

That gives me an idea - we have fairly high ceilings in this apartment. I could put more pictures above the bookshelves. Hmmmmmm . . .

Do it — that beautiful signed Vess print (above) will look perfect there!

Thanks, guys.

And I definitely get what you are saying, TD…but you’ll be glad to know that no bookcase space was lost with this print, as it hangs above a doorway (thank you, high ceilings!).

Seconded! That does look really good!

I wish I had the space for a lot of those prints - or just even more artwork in general. But I need the walls for bookshelves.

Something a little unusual for me: I picked up the I AM LEGEND Suntup giclée print a week or so ago, and it now hangs proudly in my office. Very pleased with it, one of my all-time favorite books...I'll post up pictures on Twitter sometime next week.

EDIT: Decided to post it this morning instead…pics here:

That looks fantastic, Ron. Congrats!

Received a couple books from Brian A. Hopkins today. One is a collection of his fantasy short stories (Road's End) and the other is a collection (Voices in the Darkness) with his novella "La Belle Epoque,". I am looking forward to reading them both.

Got a new Lansdale collection in today - not signed, but is numbered - 180 total copies.

Sadly, no copyright information so it's hard to know what's new and what's reprinted (and from where.)

It's a nice little collection.

Congrats, Jason on the puppy! She's gorgeous! I had a black lab named Midnight as a kid. One of the best dogs I've ever owned. She was the mascot of our little neighborhood gang and would follow us to the ends of the earth all summer long.

Thanks Brian!

Our last dog, Olive, was also a black lab. I'm completely biased, but they are the best dogs.

That's great. Excellent shelf by the way.

Not a book but I like it anyway.

Thanks. I did not have that info. I was wondering how many and anticipated schedule.

If it helps any, Paul said in the video that it’s planned to be a five books over three years, so at least that $500 investment is spread over 36 months.
