Since I can't seem to find the thread where we were posting collection pictures, I will start this thread. Here are some pics of Stratochamp's collection:

To satisfy the curiosity of many, here are some pics from stratochamp's hoard.



















For a close up on some of the shelves, you can download these images and zoom in close:

These pics blow my mind. Stratochamp’s collection is simply amazing! Very well organized. The piano, to put things in perspective, is a nice touch 

Cheers,
Curt

Simply amazing! What an incredible collection of material! I love the shelving and the rares. Did you know that between the two of us we hold over 20% of the known LTs? I'm going start collecting rares again! This is cool!!! I'm inspired!

I particularly like that the collection itself is at front and center of what would seem to be a living room, almost like a painting on a wall. Very bold display of what is clearly an important part of Str's life. The dragon leaning over the top to look down is a nice touch.

Thanks for sharing!

I've heard that glass doors that filter the UVs will be added as well to stop the books from deteriorating.

UV conditions are important to pay attention to. The same holds true of any item worthy of museum, either now or in the future.
