Son of My 50 Year Junk Obsession

Awesome pick ups!! Dream club is a tougher book. It was originally printed with the title "Beyond Desire" which is even harder to find. -

Awesome collection. I NEED that LoTR set. And If you got that Army Romances spring edition from CC I think you were bidding against me. -

I believe the cover is Bonfils. You are right they aren't cheap items, but relative to PCH they are a bargain. -

Also what’s not to love? Great covers, awesome stories, culturally important, and for the time being reasonably affordable. -

I think the sci fi connection is important. I originally got into PBs because of my love of sci fi. There are multiple Instagram accounts devoted to sci fi and paperback art with 100k or more followers. And their followers are avid and active. -

I'm 35 and actively collecting. But I might be the exception proving the rule. -

Another anti-communist rarity (1 other copy on census). Lower grade than I usually like but I've been looking for a long time: -

I'd be surprised if physical collecting ceases to be a thing unless we cease to be physical beings. Most of those homes are staged and they remove personal items before selling. I also think Genz do collect e.g., some of the prices being paid for 2000s era digital cameras are surprising. I don't like to speculate on collectibles but If I had to pick I'd say tech and science will continue on an upward trend in the long term. Especially stuff related to AI or early digital art. I'd also include within that influential sci fi books e.g. Neuromancer, Snow Crash, Red Mars or anything that has captured tech bros' imaginations. D&D and videogame art also seem promising. In the short term vinyl is in the process of taking taking off. And as soon as HA has some signature auctions I'd expect to see prices increase substantially.
