Christmas came a bit early this year! I've been hunting for authentic prop books from IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS [a hugely formative movie for me] for decades. Once again, persistence paid off. I finally nabbed a complete set, with a COA signed by John & Sandy. My holy grail has been found!

Thank you Sean, Antwan, Sandy, & John. These are a dream come true.

And check out Storm King Comics! They're awesome.
