That's a very, very old loose leaf binder from way back when I worked for a 
dealer that carried Pentax equipment. The spine says "Pentax Power" and the 
cover has "Pentax Dealer Catalog" printed on it. The original contents are long 
long gone; I repurposed it some time in the middle-1980s .. it's been holding a 
bunch of pages of negs and slides from around 1984 or so. 

None of them are Pentax captures; the very first Pentax camera I owned and used 
was the Pentax *ist DS in 2004.

Those are the original wheels and heavily used tires from my Specialized Fatboy 
Comp Carbon. They're my spare wheels at present, and will be fitted to the 
other new Salsa Beargrease custom build bicycle that I have sitting next to 
them in its box. This bike will be built up for carrying when I go traveling 
again: I've had it and all its parts since March, but since it's more compact 
and easier to store disassembled as parts than as a fully built bicycle, I've 
not bothered to assemble it yet. (The wheels are ok and usable, but the rear 
hub is only mediocre quality. I suspect I'll build another set of the beautiful 
carbon wheels with Onyxx Racing hubs that I have on my daily ride before I 
actually take the bike anywhere.)

Right below the 'D' in Hasselblad is a book that says "Pentax P"

If it weren't for chaotic hodgepodges, I wouldn't have any book shelves at all.

Kind of curious why the bicycle wheels are wandering around by themselves. What 
happened to the bike?

I like the contrasting geometry of the bookshelves and wheels, and the

I haven’t gone snooping at the titles yet…
