Driving north on I-75 in south Georgia and all the highway signs had this weird blacked out lettering going on when the headlights hit them. It only lasted for about 20 miles, and now they all look normal again. Large fire in the area and soot maybe?

Could anyone help me identify this edition of Book of the Three Dragons by Kenneth Morris?

I can't find anything online with this color. Most appear to be green. Unfortunately the jacket was not included. Thank you.

Can't find comps for this book

I picked this up at a thrift store. I can't find any comps for the self-published versions. This is a fifth self published printing from June 2001. It was later produced as a trade paperback and there are a few ebay listing all over the map for that one. Any help would be appreciated.

Figured I would post this here for some real ones. You can get autographed copies of Frank's upcoming autobiography on pre-order at Books-a-million for $35

Last post with link got deleted, but it's legit.

I picked up 17 hardbacks at a goodwill online auction last night. This will really fill out my collection. Photos were sparse but they all looked decent. Wish me luck. $96 + shipping

An 1888 copy of The Lives and Public Services of Cleveland and Thurman from the 1888 Democratic National Convention. This is somewhat interesting as this is the election that Cleveland lost when he was up for re-election, before being elected for a second term in 1892, making him the first President to serve non-consecutive terms (Trump is the only other).

Top two shelves: Still need a few of the classics. Eventually all paperbacks will be hard backs. I'm holding out to find a first edition copy of The Stand with original jacket, and I want a Dark Tower set that looks cohesive, but this has been a lot of work getting this far.

The amount of money I spent on this one section of my bookshelf is just stupid, but I love it so much. Eventually I hope to replace these decorative copies of the books with much older editions, but this will do for now.
