My stacks are even more lopsided than yours, because I've purchased several hundred photo books over the years and made exactly zero photo books of my own.
On the other hand, I have fewer than two dozen prints made by others, but 15 boxes of my prints stashed under my bed and another dozen boxes stacked against a wall of my family room.
I will not compound *my* shame by estimating (to the nearest 100) how many I own. Even with privileged access to an art-school library, I have found it essential to buy the best before they go out of print and become unobtainably expensive, way beyond any library budget.

Ah, a toy dinosaur - they've taken over our house, too ;^)

You're kidding, right? These are ALL the photo-books you own? Surely not...

I make use of libraries! Extensive use. I didn't want to compound my shame by mentioning it.
