[Ads-l] Books

[Bill Mullins]

I like photos of the bookshelves of real people.  It's kind of fun to see that Tony Curtis has a book that you also have a copy of:

Or Neil Gaiman:

J. Michael Straczynski is Harlan Ellison's literary executor.  He just posted some photos of the inside of Ellison's house ("Ellison Wonderland") on Facebook.

Ellison supposedly had ~250,000 books, so there are a number I recognize on his shelves that I also have.  But I'm posting about it here because he also has RHDAS (including a second copy of Vol. 2).
