I really like those leatherbounds from B&N. I keep meaning to upgrade my jacketed HC of Lovecraft's fiction to the B&N leatherbound, but never get around to it.
Nice King and Hill collection! Are many of them first editions?
I believe the Hill ones are. I think some of the more recent King ones are, but as for the older ones (like The Shining) they're generally second printings or book club editions. I've picked up most of them at library sales.
Very nice, CGF! Every collection starts off small. (Besides, I spy a HC copy of the complete ficiton of H.P. Lovecraft, so that right there makes it signiificant!)
Thanks for starting a collection of yours. I too, didn't really have much, but it's still "my"/"your" collection, and that's what it's all about. I don't have any special editions at this time.
FWIW this is my normal book collection or about a third of it. I have some more scattered around the house and there's another bookcase downstairs that's a bit disorderly at the moment. (If anyone's wondering those aren't first editions of The Shining and Cujo but book club editions I got from a library sale.) Also the book at the left corner is the pop-up edition of Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon.
