Shelf Porn Request:My Father’s Books

So,after a request in my comments,my father,John Day,was kind enough to take photos of the completed “basement of bookshelves”. You can visit the entire Flickr Photostream at:http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikoday/sets/72157615600681785/with/3370449266/ But I wanted to share a few prime pieces here. (All comments by John Day).

Three bookshelves of science fiction.

Harlan Ellison paperbacks (hardbacks are elsewhere in the house) along with copies of SF mags in which he had a cover story. Also a nice collection of old Fantasy and Science Fiction magazines and books.
