My collection of 'graphic novels' or as I prefer, just comic books, because that's essentially what those 'novels' usually are. Comic books with binding.
Two big expensive collections of the very first Spider-Man comics, JTHM: Directors Cut (AKA: includes shitty sketches traded for 'meanwhiles' considered by many to be the best part of the comic), two volumes of that lovely series The Walking Dead, and the adult book about a couple guys that dress as pirates from The Devils' Panties.

Henry Clay and Adelaide Childs Frick House. 1 East 70th Street, Upper East Side, Manhattan, New York City, New York, United States
Set in spacious grounds and surrounded by retaining walls, this great mansion presents a striking picture of imposing grandeur and architectural distinction on Fifth Avenue, where it occupies the entire blockfront between 70th and 71st Streets.
Built as the residence of Henry Clay Frick, it has been a museum since 1935- The entrance to The Frick Collection is at No. 1 East 70th Street. Adjoining the mansion to the east and connected to it at basement level, is the newer Frick Art Reference Library Building at No. 10 East 71st Street.
When Mr. Frick purchased this site for his mansion in 1911, it was then occupied by the Lenox Library which, at that time, was about to unite its holdings with those of the Astor and Tilden Libraries in the newly completed New York Public Library at 42nd Street and Fifth Avenue. It is worthy of note that Mr. Frick selected the firm of Carrere & Hastings, the architects of the New York Public Library, to design his mansion.
His residence was planned from the beginning to serve as a future museum. The famed coke and steel magnate had gradually built up an outstanding art collection which he intended to open to the public in the mansion after his wife's death. After the death of Mr. Frick and his wife in 1931, the Board of Directors of his collection, which had been incorporated in 1920, immediately advanced plans for alterations and additions to the mansion and for the construction of a research library building.
The entire complex was opened to the public on December 16, 1935.
The mansion takes full advantage of the magnificent site, facing Central Park. Separating it from Fifth Avenue, and slightly above it, is a wide lawn and garden which create a feeling of spaciousness. Making the transition to the house, a raised terrace is approached from the lawn by a broad flight of steps flanked by monumental urns.
These steps lead up to the central and most prominent feature of the Fifth Avenue facade: a shallow projecting bay is given dramatic emphasis by four Ionic pilasters which enframe the three arched windows of the first story and the windows above it. The main body of the mansion is three stories high, including a classical attic story.
The top of a wide bandcourse, surmounting the rusticated first floor, serves as a sill for the second story windows and is the dominant unifying feature of the building, linking the north and south wings to the main body of the mansion. The attic story is set back behind a handsome parapet with balusters in front of each window.
Full-length, square-headed windows at the first floor, at either side of the central feature, are given emphasis by panels above, with delicate bas-relief carvings.
The lawn is framed at the north by a charming loggia which extends along the south side of the gallery wing and terminates in a pavilion at the Fifth Avenue corner. This long one-story wing, set above a rusticated base, encloses the property on the 71st Street side and extends eastward 275 feet from Fifth Avenue. A shorter two-story wing on 70th Street overlooks the garden facing Fifth Avenue and runs eastward until it meets the small forecourt to the main entrance. It continues the theme of the rusticated first floor and has two handsome pedimented windows at the Fifth Avenue end.
The French Louis XVI character of the mansion, established by Carrere & Hastings, was faithfully maintained by John Russell Pope when he altered it in 1931-35 after Mr. Frick's death. The handsome doorway with arched pediment at the main entrance on East 70th Street was originally a carriage driveway which led through to East 71st Street, passing through an open courtyard.
In order to provide a larger entrance hall with coat rooms and additional space for The Frick Collection, Pope made provision for extra facilities and transformed the open courtyard into an enclosed atrium with arched glass skylight supported on coupled columns. He also extended the north wing to provide additional space: the Oval Room, the East Gallery and Lecture Room. The site of the East Gallery had previously been occupied by a separate building housing Mr. Frick's two-story Art Reference Library which he had opened to the art world as early as 1924.
When further expansion was decided upon, the adjacent property to the east, No. 10 East 71st Street, was purchased and Pope was commissioned to design a new six-story library building, founded by Miss Helen C. Frick in memory of her father.
The Art Reference Library Building, completed in 1935, is an impressive structure, approached through a monumental arch supported on paired Ionic columns which rest on a low base of the same height as that of the north wing of The Frick Collection. The entablature from which the arch springs is also approximately the same height as that of the adjoining wing. Above the central arch there are four stories behind a plain limestone wall, pierced only by three monumental pedimented windows with balusters below them.
A deep entablature, with an elaborately decorated frieze and projecting roof cornice, crowns the blank wall above the windows which contains the library stacks.

The Rijksmuseum (Dutch pronunciation: [ËrÉi̯ksmyËzeËjÊm]; English: State Museum) is a Netherlands national museum dedicated to arts and history in Amsterdam. The museum is located at the Museum Square in the borough Amsterdam South, close to the Van Gogh Museum, the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, and the Concertgebouw.
The Rijksmuseum was founded in The Hague in 1800 and moved to Amsterdam in 1808, where it was first located in the Royal Palace and later in the Trippenhuis. The current main building was designed by Pierre Cuypers and first opened its doors in 1885. On 13 April 2013, after a ten-year renovation which cost ⬠375 million, the main building was reopened by Queen Beatrix. In 2013 and 2014, it was the most visited museum in the Netherlands with record numbers of 2.2 million and 2.45 million visitors.
The museum has on display 8,000 objects of art and history, from their total collection of 1 million objects from the years 1200â2000, among which are some masterpieces by Rembrandt, Frans Hals, and Johannes Vermeer. The museum also has a small Asian collection which is on display in the Asian pavilion.
Building
The building of the Rijksmuseum was designed by Pierre Cuypers and opened in 1885. It consists of two squares with an atrium in each centre. In the central axis is a tunnel with the entrances at ground level and the Gallery of Honour at the first floor. The building also contains a library. The fragment building, branded Philips wing, contains building fragments that show the history of architecture in the Netherlands. The Rijksmuseum is a rijksmonument (national heritage site) since 1970 and was listed in the Top 100 Dutch heritage sites in 1990. The Asian pavilion was designed by Cruz y Ortiz and opened in 2013.
History
21st century
The atrium after the renovation in 2013
In December 2003, the main building of the museum closed for a major renovation. During this renovation, about 400 objects from the collection were on display in the 'fragment building', including Rembrandt's The Night Watch and other 17th-century masterpieces.
The restoration and renovation of the Rijksmuseum are based on a design by Spanish architects Antonio Cruz and Antonio Ortiz. Many of the old interior decorations were restored and the floors in the courtyards were removed. The renovation would have initially taken five years, but was delayed and eventually took almost ten years to complete. The renovation cost ⬠375 million.
The reconstruction of the building was completed on 16 July 2012. In March 2013 the museum's main pieces of art were moved back from the 'fragment building' (Philips Wing) to the main building. The Night Watch returned to the Night Watch Room, at the end of the Hall of Fame. On 13 April 2013, the main building was reopened by Queen Beatrix. On 1 November 2014 the Philips Wing reopened with the exhibition Modern Times: Photography in the 20th Century.
According to Muriel Huisman, Project Architect for the Rijksmuseum's renovation, "Cruz y Ortiz always like to look for a synergy between old and new, and we try not to explain things with our architecture.â With the Rijks, âthereâs no cut between old and new; weâve tried to merge it. We did this by looking for materials that were true to the original building, resulting in a kind of silent architecture."

The collection of the Rijksmuseum consists of 1 million objects and is dedicated to arts, crafts, and history from the years 1200 to 2000. Around 8000 objects are currently on display in the museum.
The collection contains more than 2,000 paintings from the Dutch Golden Age by notable painters such as Jacob Isaakszoon van Ruisdael, Frans Hals, Johannes Vermeer, Jan Steen, Rembrandt, and Rembrandt's pupils.
The museum also has a small Asian collection which is on display in the Asian pavilion.
It also displays the stern of HMS Royal Charles which was captured in the Raid on the Medway, and the Hartog plate.
In 2012 the museum took the unusual step of making some 125,000 high-resolution images available for download via its Rijksstudio webplatform, with plans to add another 40,000 images per year until the entire collection of one million works is available, according to Taco Dibbits, director of collections.
