While entering media - mostly book - data, I stumbled across the following which I regard as VERY cool - an autographed, personalized copy of 'A Wizard of Earthsea.' Unfortunately, it's a paperback, but beggars can't be choosers. Le Guin is widely regarded as one of the best authors of the 20th Century, and this is one of my all-time favorite books. If you haven't read the first three 'Earthsea' books, by all means do so. They're small books, quick reads, but classics aimed at adults in the same way that Orwell's 'Animal Farm' was.

The database just topped 3,000 entries, btw. I badly underestimated when I guessed 7,000 in total. Maybe 14,000.... Rolling Eyes It's the magazines that are throwing my guess off. Lots of SF magazines and they don't take much space. I've got magazines with stories by H.G. Wells. Others by a very young James Thurber. They're cool but... there sure are a lot of 'em. The oldest was probably a copy of The Atlantic from 1895.
