I got a couple movies - Raging Bull on Blu-ray/DVD combo and Roman Holiday on DVD.

I also got an air conditioner for my room, money, movie passes to buy tickets for movies, clothes, and a bunch of other cool stuff.

I am desperately looking for a Steven Spielberg signed letter (especially with Schindler's List content). If you have one I will make you an offer you can't refuse.

Gave my 14 yo daughter a DS 1 sheet for Nightmare Before Christmas.  Huge hit.  Gave my sister an insert for Bye Bye Birdie.

Bought myself another BlueRay player and my daughter gave me the BluRay for Meet me in St Louis, one of my favorite musicals.

I did buy myself a set of 13 Frankenstein FOH from the 1930s releases (which means they are from 1931 & 1938) in the Profiles in History auction. Incredibly cheap too at about $525 with the vig.
That's $40 each for original 1930s, which I could not believe as they value way higher than that.

when they come in, I'll post them in My Collection.. I can't wait to see them. There are many top scenes in the group.

Rich, those look like an early (not first) release U.K. F.O.H. Stills, the one's with the Eros stickers on were re-used in the 50's. As Eros re-released most of Universals 30's and 40;s back catalog in the 50's.

Can't wait to see the others, you have some bargain there for $525...

Dan Strebin who works for Profiles says there is a combo of releases from 1931-1938 and yes.. the Eros snipes clearly show the still were re-purposed for the 40s or 50s releases

Got to know where to right click...this gives a better view of them. They really are a nice bit of history. I'd be interested in seeing how the hand colouring on the back changes the presentation/look of them, if you have a light box it might be cool to see them photographed again.

Looks like the stills without Eros stickers appear to have had them removed? Looks like glue residue?
Cool pics nonetheless...

Mostly MP books, including Art of the Modern Movie Poster and British Film Posters ("the first complete history of illustrated film posters in the UK covers every aspect of design, printing and display from the Victorian era to the arrival of DeskTop Publishing in the 1980s") and several Hammer books from The Cinema Shop in London (following Paul's lead on those):
