Best Library Ever

It's a bit rococo, possibly even tacky, but I love Jay Walker's library. Sputnik? Check. Enigma machine? Check. An amazing assortment of medieval books on science and natural history, along with originals of the Kelmscott Chaucer, Nuremberg Chronicle, and Coverdale Bible, all mixed in with cheesy Franklin Press reprints?
Yes, yes, yes, and, oddly, yes. This is heaven, as envisioned by a bookish 15 year old.

Thanks to Magnolia (and her research assistant, Arlo) for the link.
