Frik51's Collection

[TerryE]

I've been very lucky so far in that regard. Knocking on wood.

Wow, really sorry to hear that John and Randy! That's just terrible!

I had a burglary of my home where four men broke the patio doors out of my house with hammers and then kicked my main entrance door out of the wall including the frame and stole with my own pillowcases off my bed a trainload of my finest collectibles, books, coins, family heirloom jewelry and guns. That 'took the wind out of MY collecting sails' for one lifetime. Thank you burglars.

I used to own all those Hildebrandt calendars. They were stored in my basement. A few years ago, while my wife and I were vacationing in Hawaii, we had the remnants of a hurricane hit our area and the basement flooded. I lost more than 30-50% of my sf and fantasy collection (about 40,000-50,000 books, paperbacks, magazines, etc.). I kind of gave up collecting everything then and am mostly sticking to Stephen King, which I keep upstairs now.

The upcoming one I really don't like too much.
Don't ask why I bought it then.
Because it was there, I guess...

Thanks, Pete. I'm sure I will. Je ne parle pas Francais, so my Anglais will have to do.
