Yesterday we drove down to Ann Arbor to go through the U of M museum, which we hadn’t visited in quite a few years, and we also stopped in to the Dawn Treader bookstore on Liberty Avenue. This really is a helluva shop, beautifully cluttered in the way that only a good used bookstore can be. It may not have more masks than my attic, but it has a nice assortment, along with a lovely faux Egyptian sarcophagus that it is quite eye-catching, and its SF collection is lovely and varied, with some things piled so high that someone around six feet tall may juuuust reach ’em. Oh, yes, and Dawn Treader also has a section of first editions and signed editions that the easily tempted, especially those with slack on their credit cards, perhaps should not peruse...
In any event, I picked up 10 nice Heinleins, including some beautiful old first edition Scribner’s and an edition of Variable Star signed by Spider Robinson. I scanned all covers, plus the occasional Clifford Geary interior and some further Richard M. Powers interiors of the illustrated Fawcett The Number of the Beast. All 24 shots now are posted to their appropriate pages in my Heinlein art galleries.
Enjoy!
