I'm not a prolific buyer of books, so when I acquire one I want people to know it. I was thinking of announcing it in the NYT, but that was too expensive. But seriously, I make no apologies for doing it, and I'll tell you why.... Take this book for example, HOF #17. It's a pre code purchase. It goes in that thread. It's an 'undead' book. It goes in that thread. It's an EC book. It goes in that thread. etc. etc. See where I'm going? Threads are there for a reason. Use 'em. First time I've known anyone complain about being 'on-topic' Plus, you have more posts than "fifties", so there's that too... And since you brought it up...here's my copy...

Popular Post Tri-Color Brian Posted September 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2021 I had this issue a long time ago, but it disappeared. I have no idea where it went (I probably sold it like an "insufficiently intelligent person"), so this year I bought this copy from my favorite dealer to replace it.
