If you've purchased any
(or all) of the Sheldon comics, which ones are they? Have you purchased any of the limited-edition artist collection? If so, share your image with us
(photos would be great)! I'd love to see what everyone has gathered.
As for myself, I only have the first 3 books, none of which are artist editions. I plan on picking up the latest collection soon, but the artist editions are already gone. Anyone willing to give up their copy?

I've got 3 originals (the 4th one was ordered, but is still on the way across the Atlantic):

My ultimate goal is to have at least 10 more, because I've got a part of wall in my apartment where these fit in perfectly. And I've still got plenty of space left :D.
I also have 3 artist's editions. Pure Ducky Goodness is essentially one, too, because Dave still put sketches in every book back then.
I've got a sketch of Arthur, Oso, Flaco and Gramp in them. But there's absolutely no way I'd sell any of the books :)

I have the first book in the limited edition set that Dave signed for Monty when he went to Kansas (plug: that really is some seriously good salsa), and an Artist's Edition of the second one. I keep meaning to buy the next ones, but I don't have an excess of disposable income so I think what's going to happen is that I'll buy them all at once at some point down the road (and get sketches if Dave ever gets out to the Northeast again). But I'm going to try to buy the next one in an Artist's Edition.
As for original artwork, I was purchased this one [sheldoncomics.com] by an extremely kind, generous, and anonymous benefactor from the Sheldon forums. When I finish painting the walls of my apartment, the next moderately frivolous use of money is going to be to get it framed and hung over my desk.
