Braling IIWhew. I was
hoping you meant The Very
Virile Viking, instead of a Norseman going around spreading tuberculosis or something!

oz-crumleyI have several treasured RB volumes.
The metal-bound F.451, signed by Ray, with superb colour Joe Mugnaini illustrations, would have to be the most prized book in my collection.
There is also a Joe M.-illustrated edition of MARTIAN CHRONICLES on my shelf.
Some others:
A movie tie-in paperback of F.451.
The fantastic Gauntlet re-issue of DARK CARNIVAL.
Dec.'43 Astounding Science Fiction (with 'Doodad'); a $4 bargain!
I love my RB collection, the unique editions etc., but have to agree with philnic that the real treasure is on the pages, no matter what the binding is or what edition it is.
