Yeah these are cool! I have my Evil Dead Book right in between my Sideshow 12" Ash and Evil Ash.

hehe, i keep cracking up because i used to work at this super stuffy Barnes and Noble and we had the first "book of the dead"
my co-workers and i would bet on who got to buy it first, but none of us made beans so we never got it.
meanwhile, we would torture the abundant classical music lovers (not that there is anything wrong with classical) with it. we'd pull it out and talk it up and say how much their family would love it.
they would purse their lips and walk out like they had some corncobs stuck up you know where
boring job, that made it more fun!! hehe

I quite like that and is that a rubbing of a real tombstone you have framed in the bottom pic. Each time I look at these photos I see something else. Nice stuff. The mandolin woman is an original painting we found at a thrift store here in Austin. I love it - it's so "Rod Serling's Night Gallery" creepy. And yeah - that's a tombstone rubbing that my fiance found in a thrift store a long time ago. skylar wrote: zomboid, I bought my girlfriend a Little Miss No Name for christmas this year!
also, is that a Blickenstaff painting that you have? that one of Frankenstein. That Little Miss No Name was my first big ebay aquisition many many years ago. I'd love to find an original box - they look really cool.
Yeah - that's a Blickenstaff drawing. I have 2. I like that one coz it looks like Lux Interior from the Cramps.

the one I bought for the wife came with a box, almost perfect except the top flap was ripped off and taped back on. you can see the bottom of it on top of one of those wall mounted display cases.
and yes tongue, that is the spectreman dvd-box. it only cost me half as much as that kamen rider briefcase though.

My ex collected Little Apple dolls. I was really surprised and quite blown away by the quality. Very Nice collection you have!
I hadn't seen any of the newer ones.

THe apple dolls are rather eerie. What are they made of? Looks ceramic almost. Maybe painted that way.

moriachi, na at least not till i move out of home and have a proper display case, even then i prolly wont. i think the box is as cool as the dolls are, ecpecially when its closed. they have books and stuff in them so it makes it a bit tempting but not just yet.
