Thank you for the reply Edward. I'll let my readers know.

On various online forums there has been some additional information posted that I wanted to make sure was accurate:

- There are 10 signed copies for non-customers that can be won by entering the drawing (no purchase necessary)
- There are 100 signed copies that can be won for customers of the Folio Society / or those first time customers that buy a book between now and June 26th
- The total number of signed copies available to be won is 110
- The contest is open to anyone worldwide not just those with addresses in the UK

Does that sound accurate? If so, could you clarify


- If a person signed up for the non-customer drawing and then later purchased a copy of the book is he entered into both drawings? Or does his purchase move his single entry from the 10 non-customer section to the 100 customer section?
- Does everyone who buys a book (regardless of title) get entered into the 100 signed copy drawing automatically, or is it for customers that purchase a copy of The Shining specifically?
- Are these 110 copies in addition to the 2,300? Meaning is the actual print run 2,410 copies?
- Is there a slipcase that comes with the book?

Thank you again for your time,

Dear Mr Krynsky

I would be happy to clarify. The first four statements of your email are indeed correct. As to the fifth, one can only enter the draw once, even if you enter and then later purchase a book. I can also confirm that the draw can be entered on the purchase of any book, not solely 'The Shining'. With regards to the print run for the book, please be aware that this is not an exact science, as it were. There were roughly 2,500 copies printed in all. I can also confirm that the book does indeed have a slipcase. This is true for all of our book unless otherwise stated.

I do hope that this clarifies matters.

Kind regards
