Let the Wrightson one in

During our visit to LA, Peter and I had a chance to visit with legendary artist Bernie Wrightson, who's amazing illustrated version of Frankenstein was recently reissued in honor of its 25th anniversary.

I wanted to post a note here in case anyone is interested, as it is the most beautiful the book has ever looked, and while the first printing is now sold out (the initial run was only 7500 copies), you can still get first edition copies on Amazon for less than $20 while they last!

I've seen less attractive volumes regularly offered at $50 or more - so this really is a steal. Act quick if you want to grab a first edition before they're gone.
