              Delightfully politically incorrect!

                    That, Mr Boone, is one hell of a beautiful production, in every respect !!!!!!

                      Wow! They did a great job on that one! Probably the nicest, most interesting edition I've seen from Easton.

                        I was really impressed. The only downside to the production I can readily see is that is the size of the original serialized parts. When bound together, it is 900+ pages and does not open readily like most EP books. When I start reading it, I'm sure it will loosen up. But i like the fact that it doesn't have any gold embossing on the covers--when reading a long work (like...War &Peace), the oils in you hands and constant rubbing in cetain places can make the embossing wear off. Not here.

                        One of my favorite movie quotes comes from "Rocky III:"

                        Burgess Meredith (commenting on the Italian Stallion statue): "Definitely a thing of beauty."

                          That's "H" as in "Hang onto your pocketbook, son, this is the first of many! You will be broke the rest of your life!"
                          I got this one in my dark regions grab bag
                          also my first lettered edition.My number was J as in You jerk you spent all the kids christmas money on another book.Quote from my wife. Na just kidding.
                          This was a great grab bag and I too was pleased with what they sent.I went with the 9 item bag and got 11 books 4hard cover 7 trade most signed. and a coffee mug
                          that matched one of the books.Very good deal.

                            I declined to get a copy of KWP's Dracula and I kinda glad I did (after listening to all the problem encountered with the book). But I thought I would post pictures of the copy of Dracula I've settled on. It's Easton Press' version (fopund in the Horror Classics and Greatest Books Ever Written collections).

                                Illustrated with woodcut engravings by Swiss artist Felix Hoffman (who was also a stained glass artist).
