Where did you find this Voicelady?  I hadn't heard of it before & just
checked bn.com & amazon -- nothing listed.  Is it the same as the UK
Deluxe editions?  Or, is it an American special edition?

Nah -- you're not over the top yet.  I have several editions of each
book (HB & pb of the US editions, regular trade UK editions & the Deluxe
Collectors' editions of the UK versions).  The WB bookends.  The Reading
is Magic HP poster (framed & matted & hanging in my study  I might
add).  Both cassettes & CDs of the audio versions.  A Muggles for HP
button.  A Gryffindor t-shirt, a Quidditch t-shirt & the Hogwarts crest
t-shirt.  Hmmm . . . that's it so far.  But, I did just ask for a myriad
of things (including all the Hallmark merchandise & the WB ornaments)
for my birthday next month.  I can't decide about those canvas wall
hangings -- are you happy with your SS one Voicelady?
