Book Library Part 2

In an earlier post, I showed you one side of the Book Library.  In this picture you'll see my 1970-1990 Topps Baseball, Football, Basketball, and Hockey card collections (in binders).  I also have some oddball card collections like 70's Wacky Packages, Star Wars, Charlie's Angels, and Kiss.  I even have a complete set of 1991 Desert Storm cards.

The bottom two shelves of the middle bookcase houses my roleplaying games.  Dungeons & Dragons books, adventures, playing aids, dice, etc.  I mainly played D&D but I was also into Gamma World, d20 Modern, and Call of Cthulhu.  Yeah, I had a lot of interests as a kid (and continues as an "adult kid").  I was a jock, musician, and geek (in no particular order) all rolled into one.

On the far right bookcase, I have my musical equipment manuals as well as music software, music theory and training books, etc.

On top of everything is my National Geographic magazine collection.

The Book Library is unpacked!

I finally made some time this past weekend to get back to unpacking boxes and organizing.  After all, I've been in the new FFS since mid-May so I'm starting to run out of excuses as to why I'm not "unpacked".

In the Book Library, I needed to build some bookcases but, after that, it didn't take me much time to decide where to place things.  The picture above shows one wall of the Book Library.  You'll see my Easton Press 100 Greatest Books Ever Written and Masterpieces of Science Fiction collections as well as my  Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror paperbacks.   In between are such goodies as MAD magazine books, The Three Investigators paperbacks, graphic novels, comics, etc.  There's even a couple of Space coffee table books in there.

Try to identify a book in the picture and post a comment.  I'm sure someone will find my reading tastes "humorous" and will be able to come up with a "smart" comment.
