As many of you know, I have been trying for years to complete an unrestored high grade run of Tecs 1-26. I still have not yet competed my quest, and may never complete it. But a lot of folks have been asking me to post a group shot, so here it is.

 

For those who care about statistics: Of these 18 books, 13 are pedigrees, 9 of which are the Church copies. 12 of the books are the highest graded copies and 4 others are the second highest graded.

 

I hope that you enjoy looking at them as much as I do.

Having been fortunate enough to see some of them in person (but not the Tec 1 :( ) I can confirm that the books are sick sick sick.
