You are keeping the Calvin & Hobbes set, right? Gotta keep the classics

I am shocked, shocked that I'm the first to boast I have the complete The Complete Peanuts!

I've still got a physical library. With a comfortable chair and a large table. More ebooks than paper ones, true. Still makes a good place to escape to, read, knit, do yoga, listen to music. The whole top floor of a medium sized house. Works for me.

Anyone got the complete Footrot Flats? You know how hard those were to obtain in Canada? Complete details on location and security systems would be appreciated.

Wow, THAT makes me feel old. I didn't realise anyone outside these Shaky Isles knew or appreciated Footrot Flats so much. Now I want to see if I can find Stanley

Ahhh... so these are the classics serious readers cherish most - comic strips, the complete series in non-digital format. So much for going mobile trying to lug around huge coffee table hardcovers

One friend of mine brought a couple of them back from a trip to your neck of the woods many years ago. For whatever reason, they appealed to my sense of humour (who wouldn't love Cooch? Wal carting his footie gear at the end of a stick?). I ordered 3 or 4 more of the books and they took so long to arrive, it was like a surprise present.

Sadly not the complete set, but a goodly sized pile of them. We're a long swim from your place.

I do have a collection of Berkley Breathed books, but I do not have the first one. Damn, now you have me wanting to find it.
