Your Latest Purchase

I took advantage of the 50% Off Sale at Taschen over the weekend and picked up a couple titles that I've wanted for a year or two, but could never pull the trigger at $200 a pop.

I snagged a copy each of THE FANTASTIC WORLDS OF FRANK FRAZETTA and THE HISTORY OF EC COMICS. Both nearly 16" tall and 500'ish pages, glossy archival full-color pages, etc....at around 13 heavy pounds each, coffee table books capable of smashing any table to splinters. And Taschen even threw in free shipping. I believe they also come in illustrated cardboard traycases for protection, but I'm not certain about that. Very excited to finally have these soon in my hands!

Those both look fantastic! Congrats.

Thanks, all. 

Yeah, I've been coveting for quite some time as well, so at 50% off my years of thus far successful restraint vaporized. They even made it a it'd-be-ridiculous-NOT-to-buy-them thing when they even threw in free shipping for these enormously heavy books.

Those are awesome books @ronclinton !

I saw that Taschen had a sale, but I'm having to be mindful of my pennies recently. That Frazetta book though is gorgeous!
