I'll start.

My prized possession is a 1934 hardback copy of Bram Stoker's Dracula. The binding is starting to fall apart and the pages are yellow and brittle with age.

I found it when cleaning out my grandmother's closet after her passing several years ago. I think it's a beautiful piece of nostalgia. I've never even so much as opened it for fear of damaging its frail body.

My second choice would be the original DragonLance Chronicles trilogy. They were reissued for the first time in hardcover several years ago. For the holidays I got a signed set of first editions.

I don't think I could ever part with my book collection, or my DVD collection. They've already traveled through two states and three moves.
