TheDarkTower.org (http://www.thedarktower.org/)is proud to be the EXCLUSIVE site to auction this new, unique and fine Collectible item.
For your consideration is an Original handmade wood slipcase for Stephen King’s “Everything’s Eventual” featuring a cover engraving of Glenn Chadbourne depiction of King’s story “The Road Virus Heads North”

This case was made (and donated) by famous craftsman Dick Olson. Check out his website: Bookslipcase.com (https://www.bookslipcase.com/)

There are FOUR pieces of original art drawn in a 1st edition copy of “Everything’s Eventual”.
Alex McVey (http://www.alexmcvey.com/), Glenn Chadbourne (http://www.glennchadbourne.com/), Erin Wells (http://www.rowanstudio.biz/), and Jill Bauman (http://www.jillbauman.com/) drew these fantastic pieces! They donated their art for our fundraiser. This book is a one of a kind!

Thanks to TheDarkTower.org member Merlin1958 who coordinated this effort and paid for all shipping as a donation to our 2013 Haven Foundation Fundraiser (http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/showthread.php?16943-2013-Fundraiser-Benefiting-The-Haven-Foundation).

Very nice!

[Merlin1958]

Oh, WOW!!!! The artist's really outdid themselves this year!!!!!

Jill Bauman, even did something different!!!

[bdwyer19]

Very cool! I loved the book done last year. Went for over $1000 if I remember correctly. This should easily go for as much.

I hope you are right!!! Not to cast any aspersions on last years auction, but Jill, Glenn and Erin really went to town!!! I know I am a bit biased, but those are some great pieces!!! Alex, is always good, but it's similar to last year's in content. The other's went a bit "outside the box" IMHO

[cit74]

That is a really nice book and case - indeed

Hmm .. this one rings a bell with me, resonates deeply within (what passes for) my mind ... and, Wild Bill, you'd better not be casting aspersions on last years HF auction - you know, and I know, that we both know that I know where you live .... mate .... :harrier:

[Ben Staad]

Excellent! I love this auction.

Not at all mate!!! I was simply pointing out the amazing differences between 2012 and 2013. I was very pleasantly surprised by Ms. Baumann doing something different especially. As always Well's and Chadbourne and McVey are innovative and talented.

FWIW, your Director and I suggested Ms. Wells theme this year and I for one think she hit it out of the park!!!


Bid, Folks!!!

Pauly, Petey, Tommy "Two times" and "Fat" Tony? Get him!!!! LOL LOL :emot-flame::shoot::shoot::shoot:

[mikeC]

I love McVey's stuff.

[Merlin1958]

Well, as of the last look we are at $200. We can do better than this, folks!!! This item should go for $500 easy!!! Look at that original art!!! Awesome stuff!!! Plus, it's truly "One of a kind"!!! I challenge you to get 4 artists to remarque a single book and then deal with the logistics!!! Not to mention a "Finely crafted wooden slipcase from the "Famous" Dolso, with a Chadbourne engraved art scene!!!!


Very Awesome Piece !!!!!


:rock::rock::rock:

[Merlin1958]

Ha!!! I think this is an AWESOME piece and therefore. I am now "High Bidder"!!! If you folks are gonna let it go this cheap I may as well cast my hat in the ring!!!

Anyone want to buy a nice 1/1 of "Everything's Eventual"? LOL

15 mins!!! You bastard!! LOL Oh, its "on"!!! LOL LOL LOL

Edit: Now It is getting outside of my comfort zone, but not entirely!!! This is an "Awesome" collectible!!!!!

Wait - you said it should go for over $500 and it is already out of your comfort zone? I just finished my tax return and it was not as painful as 2 years ago...

There's a difference between what an item is worth and what I am willing to pay. I really like this item, but I was only willing to go to $200+ on the off chance you heathens (lol) didn't go higher.

$217.50 right now!!!

Edit: Now that I think about it, it may actually be worth more than $500 just in what was donated, if you take my meaning. Figure in the case and engraved art, approx. $175 - $200, Each artists "remarque" general fee (again more or less) $100 and the cost of the book ($25?) and we're north of $600!!! Plus, tell me that isn't a fantastic looking piece for your collection? LOL

Edit 2: Damn, if I ain't tempted to up the bid!!!! LOL

[Merlin1958]

$228.50!!! with less than 24 hrs to go!!! Folks, the remarques alone are worth at least $400!!! Mot to mention the case and engraved art!!!


BID!!!



Plus, at this point, I'm done!! I swear!!! I woulda gone for it if you huys were gonna let it go cheap.

[Merlin1958]

Just over 5 hrs to go!!!

[Ben Staad]

I would hate for this to go for that price.

[Lauterer]

psssssssssssst........

[Ben Staad]

psssssssssssst........

LOL. Sorry but true. Great item and hopefully there will be some more action on this.

[Randall Flagg]

The market will dictate.

[Ben Staad]

Went for $316. Congrats to the winner.

[Lauterer]

Yeah, i was second, what do I get NOW???? :panic:

[Bad Penny]

Went way too cheaply for such a quality item !!!! :o

[Merlin1958]

Went way too cheaply for such a quality item !!!! :o

I agree, but what are you gonna do, right?? This was stolen!! No offense to the winner, who got a great deal!!!

[Bad Penny]

None taken Wild Bill, and it'll look spectacular next to the EE case from the 2012 round of auctions :harrier:

[Merlin1958]

Congrats, BP at least it went to a good home and fellow member!!!

[Bad Penny]

Sigh, I suppose so ... However, I'm divided - I'm pleased that I've had the opportunity to add this to my collection, whilst at the same time a tad disappointed that it went under the hammer so cheaply (insofar as the net benefit to the Haven Foundation) :smile: / :cry:

It is an awesome piece and arguably nicer than last years!! Enjoy!!!

Damn, I shoulda bid higher!!!! LOL

[Randall Flagg]

Just over 6 hours left. Don't miss out.

[Resident Chris]

High Bidder!!! Can´t believe it!

[Lauterer]

so now we know the realmarket price...

[Dan]

I was shocked this ended under $100. I bid never thinking it would end this low, but I guess there are not as many collectors looking for slipcases for one of the rarer of his books. Now I will need to get a first edition Carrie to put into it. If someone has one of those for under $100, let me know :)

[Shannon]

Congrats!

[Rachel Readman]

Congratulations Dan. I don't own a 1st of Carrie myself either so you are not alone.

[Merlin1958]

so now we know the realmarket price...

Not really, because you will never get one for this price again.
