Another one of my favorite books. I also have a niece and nephew who list this as one of their favorite stories.

I would love for Cemetery Dance to do more illustrated children's stories.

My bad, didn't see the hijack apology until after the event - maybe Copefiend'll give it to you just to save me having to do a retraction ???

What an incredible collection! Always good to see another Glenn Chadbourne fan, his art really is great. What i really loved seeing though were the fantastic inscriptions!!!

I have not had time to take any more pictures but since I got my copies of Centuries best today I had to take the time to snap a few photo's.

These are beautiful and worth the wait:

On the Thread about these books someone asked about slipcases that may fit and Dan mentioned the White and Black Slipcases fit the two volumes. I thought I would show how they fit:
Centuries Best Vol 1 Slip.jpgCenturies Best Vol 2 Slip.jpg
I agree with Dan that the White Slipcase is a perfect fit and the Black is a little tight. It is not overly tight. I have multiple books whose intended slipcase is tighter.

Oops, did not realize that I had one photo upside down.

That's Ok, some of us are a little (or alot) upside down. Or sideways, slantways, zigways, zagways....so the black slipcase is worth ordering for Vol 2? Is this the one that fits The Passage? If so, I can try it out then before ordering.

[Martin]

I am unsure on the black slipcase. It fits fine without the Brodart cover but once that is added I don't think the fit would be good. I set this and The Passage side by side and this book is just slightly thicker.

It's approximately the same slipcase as the optional passage case, which is technically a case originally intended for Dark Tower Concordance. Although the ones we have left are actually the original cases for October Dreams / Stephen King Universe.

The case I took the photo with is the case from October Dreams.

This just makes me think of someone saying they heard something from their girlfriend's friend's mother's aunt's doctor or something like that
