    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.

      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...

                      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

                        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!

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