A real nice copy with a clear protective cover too. Worth at least $30.

I was hesitant with the Satyajit Ray because it was a Penguin India edition which means it was likely owned by an Indian, and it had brownish yellow spotting along the edges which could be either curry or faeces. I gave it the smell test.

If you can't recognize that this is a finely curated selection of the best-of-the-best, I don't know what to tell you.

Yeah they had a real nice comics selection. I left a Harvey Kurtzman collection because it was massive and I was exhausted at that point. That was dumb of me. Will be grabbing if it's still there tomorrow. $2.

I finally got an actual shelf a few days ago and it feels so nice to see my books stand upright for the first time. This is my first post in one of these threads so have fun checking out my collection.

Today's /stack/.
Pickings are getting slim, but I managed to grab a few gems. Missed out on the Kurtzman, and I left a really nice hardback edition of The Moon & Sixpence with colour illustrations of Gauguin because the buckram was stained and the spine was a little wobbly. Oh well.

Favourite finds:
John Waters' Shock Value
A Pictorial History of Israel
