Another great bit of nostalgia, Siep. I adore Rowena's art. Thanks!

Another nice calendar, I think, in near-mint condition.
I hope (think) these images came through loud and clear, Squire (and others?).

I still can't go back to my traditional way of posting these, but followed Dan's advice, using [img] [/img].
It's slower, but works perfectly.
No more attachements for me!

I discovered Robert E. Howard decades ago.
Together with Lovecraft, Derleth and Robert Bloch my favorite author(s) at the time.
This book is just amazing: one of the best limited editions I've ever come across.
Just awesome!

Never seen this one before, quite awesome. Did a quick search but did not find any available

You're welcome. The Castle Rocks , for a couple of years, were a big part of my life. Well...relatively speaking.
There was no internet so it was my/our main source of King news.
The www has made everything too easy...Instant gratification...

Un-friggin-believable! Excuse my language but your collection takes my breath away. So many gorgeous items. Thanks for sharing everything. I loved the fold-out looks of Castle Rock too. I'd love to sit and read every one of those. Well, I'd love to sit and read every magazine you posted.

I also see the new one and not the old ones. Dan's suggestion of it cacheing shouldnt be a problem since I am using private browing so it shouldnt be saving anything. Anyway...hopefully anything new will come up fine.
