Alright!! Lots of stuff accomplished on the catalog this weekend, are you guys ready to tackle this?

If so, all we have to do is create a seperate thread for each Illustration entry.

As you can see, we can fiddle with names and links once all the "articles" (threads) are there.

Matt

These are amazing Jerome but we are going to need a thread for each entry. Meaning, this one won't have any in it.

The threads are what become the articles.

I love how it looks though, this is going to work out great!

Looks like we start the thread here in the Illustrations Catalog subforum. suppose Matt will sort them out later into a wiki format.

Edit: Just saw your new thread. Never mind.



Matt, do you want to move the SoS pics from the Catalog book discussion thread into a new thread in this subforum?

Hmmm. I'm not sure, but I think the idea is a thread for each artist. Kind of like The Baronies have a thread for each book.

But hey, I could be wrong. :lol:

Okay you guys, this is how it works.

Each thread created will be an "article" when the forum is wikified.

The first post will be the main page of the article. The name of the thread will be the name of the article.

So each Illustration set should have its own thread--how those are named and organized is up to you guys. I love what we have so far.

That last bit Patrick, I would love but it just has to be its own thread to be an "article" when its wikified

We're on the same page then! (pun intended)

I like that others, like Ari, are getting involved in this - saves a lot of work for the rest of us. :clap: RF and I can always go back later to edit in the autolinks and such as needed. :thumbsup:

Okay, I reformatted the titles to make the wiki transition smoother. In cases where there are more than one edition of the book I put the publisher in parenthesis. I didn't have time to cross-reference between the King Catalog, so there are some I'm sure I missed.

Thanks. It looks great. If I catch any that were misseed I'll try to correct them.

Aaron

Just open the article and click on article tools (where thread tools would normally be), and then go to Edit Article in the drop down menu. It will bring up a screen where you can alter the title of the Article and then just click Save when you're done.


But I've finished now, so I guess it doesn't matter. You know how to do it now, though. :)

Patrick

The illustrations that had previously been lost will be reuploaded within 2 weeks... srry for that delay but would probably not being able to do better


Also, I recieved today my cheap n used UK pocket ed of Nightmares n Dreamscapes, and before the story "the house of mapple street" there is an illustration...
its weird to put an illustration for ONE story in a collection book...
no real mention of the illustrator... is written "photoset by Rowland Phototypesettings Ltd"... but is it it, or is it the picture by Tabitha King?

Do other pocket editions have illustrations? (these one is from Hodder & Stoughton)
Should we include it in the catalog or not? coz is weird honnestly..

This illustration is one way to tell if you have a 1st or 2nd state edition of the H&S hardback.

On the first state the picture faces page 448, and on the second state it faces page 433.

Illustration from The Mysteries of Harris Burdick by Chris Van Allsburg 1994.

It should go in the illustrations catalogue.

The first state UK Nightmares and Dreamscapes dust jacket also has the price as 15.99 pounds Sterling, where the second state is 16.99. The first state. with the 15.99 and the picture facing p. 448, is fairly scarce.

You got a great deal! I've heard that most of that first print run were recalled (mostly from Australia) and destroyed. I really don't know how many there are out there.

That is a good price. I haven't heard that any were destroyed. I wonder why they would do that?

I've always heard that the "first state" was the export edition.

jhanic
03-27-2008, 04:44 PM
That could be true. I don't remember where I heard it or even if I remembered it correctly. I just know that first state seems to be fairly scarce. Of course, this could be because no-one looks at their copies closely and notices the differences.

John

I think that is an excellent point and probably accounts for the sometimes great deals. And some sellers (buyers too) aren't aware that differences exist.

I would agree. Most of the booksellers on Abe I asked knew anything about the different states.

I've always been interested in, and trying to keep track, on the illustrators/artists for King's work, so it's great with this site.
However, what about all the illustrated magazine/anthology appearances, for stories and non-fiction in Cavalier, et al? I know the names for some of them.
Wouldn't it be cool to add all these, too? I'm already drooling by the thought...
If someone has some of these mags, that is.

DanishCollector
05-22-2008, 12:58 AM
I have a document where I have the names for all the illustrators I know of. If it has interest, I could post it here, and if someone has the actual magazines, then add the illustrations?

herbertwest
05-22-2008, 02:47 AM
well... I didnt want to create a thread for each magazine, coz IMO its too much and is usually only one illustration and or cover...
i dont really see the point (personnally).. or maybe thats just that the current one is corresponding to the catalog as i was seeing it...

but maybe a thread with a list of illustrated magazines which have more than 1 illustrations?
and a thread with maybe magazines with only 1 illustrations?
or.. a new thread per short stories which is illustrated somewhere, and listing the illustrations available for that story published in magazine 1,2,3...
i just DONT imagine a new thread per magazine...


the only thing, will be that we will need that supercollectors to check it (i dont own any english-language magazines...)
but... at least there will be stuff to look for and the catalog will not just be waiting.... new challenge?

?

Why not just have one thread to collect any and all magazine illustrations? Just list in the respective post any info (what magazine and story) in the post along with the pic/s?

herbertwest
05-22-2008, 03:24 AM
thats fine with me :-)

that way it will separate what i will call the "main illustrations", and the others :-)
even though some of the "others" are interesting, such as Wrighton's Before the play

i dont have any material about the magazines, so someone will have to do it :-)

Brice
05-22-2008, 03:28 AM
I do have some, but no scanner. I suppose I could take pics of those I do have.

DanishCollector
05-22-2008, 07:22 AM
Excellent idea, Brice. I have a few of the mags/anthologies with illus myself, so I will also try and add them here (not sure how to upload, I'm not so technical, but I'll scan them, and maybe e-mail them to someone who knows how to attach them here?).

herbertwest, the list/document covers ALL illustrated works. It's not totally complete, since I know of a few stories where I don't know the name of the illustrators.

jhanic: i'd like to get it please :-)

danishcollector: in your list is missing: Richard Heinrich - Eyes of the Dragon (french), see the catalog ;-)


i am not familiar with how to create a new wiki thread..
can someone create one?

title: list of illustrators

and a second one:
title: illustrations in magazines

+ adding those 2 links on the main page of the catalog (means with 'recent comments' & 'rare illustrations')

thanks :-)

DanishCollector
05-23-2008, 03:17 AM
I have no knowledge of wiki either.

I didn't include foreign illustrations, just the original American ones. Some of the Danish books have had some illustrations, too, and some German.

herbertwest
05-23-2008, 09:06 AM
do you have a list of those german and danish?
on the catalog, there are Bag of BOnes which isnt in the US one i think, german there are (eyes of the dragon x2), and french (eyes of the dragon)

those are interesting :-)

DanishCollector
05-24-2008, 08:45 AM
I don't know much about the German ones. I was once in a tourist bookshop in South France and they had a bunch of German King paperbacks, and I noticed some of them had some illustrations that weren't in the US editions.

Even though I'm Danish, I don't buy or collect the books in Danish, I prefer to read King's words "untainted". I have a few Danish King books but they are not illustrated. But I should be able to find some in my library and can scan the illustrations.

herbertwest
05-24-2008, 09:46 AM
could be interesting to know about that german...

i recieved the penguin edition of Misery.. unfortunately i ordered twice copies of The breathign method... and both times the sellers seems to do not being able to sell it cause cannot get it...
third attempt...

herbertwest
06-12-2008, 08:09 PM
let's hunt further illustrations...

first, could a mod create a thread with the list of Danishcollector?



i was wondering if the following books are illustrated or not?
- Firestarter, the S/L

I also know of a few foreign illustrated editions which I will add to the catalog within the next week or so.

Besides that, I will probably create a thread dedicated to russian illustrations. Why you may ask? Well because I found a year or so ago, on a russian Stephen King website, that there are about 40 russian illustrated books totalling for more than 200 illustrations. And some are pretty cool!
I need to sort them out and see how to organise the entries to the catalog
