holy holy shit !!
 

i've been going through my books ...

i have 1000's that i bought for the purpose of selling on ebay
(seperate from my personal collection) but i no longer have the time - so i'm sorting through them to see what to keep, what to pitch, what to donate..etc.

i just found a hardcover copy of William S. Burroughs - Cities of the Red Night.


ist edition - limited


signed by the author.

I had no idea .. probably paid 50 cents for it.

i'll be keeping this one.



sorry - i had to tell someone.

Haven't read that one. But yeh holy shit indeed :eek: you seem to have good luck with shit like that (like the Ramones flyer!).

i am totally amazed at what people get rid of ..

i've found at least 30 - 50 signed books.
many are canadian authors .. but some are famous

(a signed charlton heston autobiography for one)

That is so awesome... you could probably sell that thing for quite a lot. Not that I ever would, but still...

we found a pen full of cocaine in my harry potter 5 book when we bought it off ebay!

so that's where I left my pen

can you give us a sampling of what you have to get rid of? perhaps some people on here would be interested in taking them off your hands and saving you the hassle of ebay.

sure ... once i have them all itemized in a data base i can post a list..

i took a week off to give my back and knee a break - but i'm back at it today

well, I've brought all of the books in from the garage .. and i've brought almost all of them in from the basement .. I'll be finished that tonight.

when everything is up I'll take some pictures .. its pretty funny..

Just out of curiosity, what program do you use to catalogue everything? Plus, I'd also like to know what you're parting with. :) I'm pretty local I think.
