Hello Timothy,
Nice looking shelf and collection. Which version of Traveller do the bottles belong to?

And of course this doesn't show off the electronic holdings of a lot of recent material.small cup (PFI), nerf pistol (SEH), large cup (SEH) - awards from TravCon (see After Action Reports in Freelance Traveller)over on the right - propelling pen/pencil set and thermal mug - TravCon freebiesabove the shelves - yes, genuine Traveller beer approved by MWM for various TravCons. Well, the bottles at least. Beer long gone.7th shelf down - three bankers boxes of Challenge, one box of Travellers' Digest, box of Signal GK (A4 sized), box of Traveller Chronicle and other periodicals; the three thin things are Traveller in White Dwarf articles6th shelf down - Judges Guild material (normally live in a bankers box for safety but the box wouldn't quite fit on the shelf), various bits piled up such as the "Lost Supplements" in the brown folder and Michael Brown's one page adventures in the pink folder, The Travellers (in a white document wallet), various individual periodicals in the white bankers box and just above; white mass to the right is Freelance Traveller (usually in nice wooden Ikea bankers boxes) and then my bibliography spirally bound and heat bound March Harrier print outs. [In lieu of POD for them which TAS doesn't allow :-( unfortunately]5th shelf down - Japanese Traveller (left top - CT & MT), Mongoose German Traveller, GDW German Traveller; to the right of the Big Floppy Books Swedish fanzine and then Spanish, more Mongoose German and French Traveller5th shelf down - GURPS Traveller, T20, coloured document wallets are my 'big' adventures not yet published and my earlier bibliographies (in white) and other bits I've written.It's all Traveller save for the EC Tubb Dumarest books top right (and, arguably, the three GURPS general books (one 3rd edition and two 4th edition) next to GURPS Traveller[1])Some annotation is probably appropriate:I've been meaning to do this, for those who've asked, since the start of January, but you know... life.Anyway, for anyone who cares:

3rd shelf down - Mongoose alternate universesIt also doesn't include the two filing cabinet drawers full of papers and print outs of stuff I've been working on and may or may not ever see the light of day... Now they've been banished to the garage they're even more remote in terms of getting to them <sigh>I've got another shelf of other SF rpgs (Blue Planet, Transhuman Space, Mindjammer, Star Trek Adventures, GURPS Vorkosigan and some other SF GURPS books like Space, UltraTech etc) also not shown. There's also a shelf to the right (out of shot) of 'how to write SF' books and similar which I find a little bit helpful but are mostly focussed on writing fiction.tc----- The Traveller Mailing List Archives at http://archives.simplelists.com/tml Report problems to xxxxxx@simplelists.com To unsubscribe from this list please go to http://www.simplelists.com/confirm.php?u=zZOCJCw2BI9jPrGTB4OJoibiHbbTEiok
