Ach, looking at this lot makes me realize even more that I won't be getting a Kindle any time soon. I can smell the old paper and get a nostalgic twinge...
first book mustve been l975 funded by dog tending. the next few years i mowed a lawn of a bookstore owner who would pay me in books (mostly Del Ray and DAW publications). most of the fantasy, Howard and Burroughs stuff i bought in '75 i have very packed away that you wont see in this collection. that ended when i mowed down the new plastic sprinkler system at each corner of the lawn. my Dead Alive-old captain fukup moment.
