Grodog's Stuff Wanted

This section of the Dog House is a nice compromise between generic year-round Christmas and Birthday lists and a bootleg trading wants list.  I've organized the Stuff into a general order of desiredness as well as categories based on how likely the items are to be located.  

I also maintain a wish list on Amazon.com, which has many reasonably-priced books listed.  Speaking of books, I've added a listing of our favorite rare books sellers, to make your shopping more convenient :-)

I have a ranked listing of stuff, below.  That's the practical list, and does NOT include some things are very expensive and/or practically impossible to find (just so you know), as the following general categories attest:

I'm interested in all of this stuff as of the date listed:   if you think the date's a bit old, feel free to contact me to see if I have already found the item(s) in question.

Gift Certificates

I have many favorite local stores, and others not so local.  Any of these would be cool, if you're in the gift-giving mood but find the above links too inconvenient.  I haven't listed them in any particular order:

Rare Books Stores

These are listed in the order with which we're familiar with the stores; Allan has used Mark Ziesing and Dream Haven for years, so they're great folks to support!
