Looking forward to getting one of those emails myself for the S\L. Any yes, While it must be a trying experience for her, knowing that they are going to loving
homes I sure is a comfort to Rosemary.

[biomieg]

So, I received two shipping notifications. Turns out I ordered a copy of the Rosemary's Baby AEG way back when it was first announced. Apparently I forgot all about it and went ahead and ordered another copy this summer...

Since they're already on their way and I'm not planning to keep two copies, I guess I have one for sale... any European forum members interested?

With a reversible dust jacket, you could consider keeping them and displaying each DJ.

And not to be that guy, but the AGE of RB is the absolute lowest print run of Suntup AGEs at only 500. I was kinda hoping Mike would point that out.

I wanted to keep a low profile a bit Jeff. Paul sort of likes things to be organic, if you know what I mean. But I will say there are 39 S\L of IAL and plenty of AGE ed
of that book. And 149 S\L of Brother left. I probably won't get a shipping notice until later because all I bought was the S\L of RB.

Yup, I thought that too.

In any case, it has to be something pretty damn special to warrant a Roman Numeral edition...

Long time lurker here, owner of number 5 since Haunting of Hill House. Wish I also had Misery, but oh well, by the time I learnt about it, it was way too late.

If the set ends up to be the Lord of the Rings for whatever reason, I will lose my mind. Small chance though, but I would definitely love to see a Suntup rendition once from this book, which was a big part of my childhood. Same goes for IT (2-piece I know)...

Not sure where you get 'Series' from. Paul announced "A 3 book set". Thats not necessarily the same as a series which would indicate a continuation of a single story or theme.

[stroppygoblin]

As an example in King terms, The Green Mile is a series, The Bachman paperbacks are a 4 book set.

It’s already been announced that this will be numbered, lettered and Roman Numeral editions only, so no AGE - at least for now.

I'm the devil on your shoulder-devil's shoulder. I'm telling him to tell you to do it. Buy it. Get it. Huff it. Keep it. Because what if you pass and that three book set is on the non-King track and it leaves, completely full, at the private pre-order station? What if it is forever out of reach? And when the EMP attack lands and all gadgets are wiped out and all anyone has for entertainment are books and Suntup Editions become treasured currency, THEN where will you be? I am the DEVIL and my name is FOMO.

This is the script that runs through my head. Obviously you should ignore it and do what's right for you. No matter what, the books you already have on pre-order are gems.

I own the FS LE (lot of potential, but didn`t nail it if you ask me, which you didn`t ..) .. even whattever this (SP edition - numbered) is an upgrade .. aargh .. i will, must anyway act soon

The Gift edition looks smart on the sites, the fine publication of the numbered naturally more sophisticated and vellum is nice .. the choice of the colour used on the numbered would be interesting to know why was picked - just for the sake of curiosity

Oh .. i`ll cave in probably. Cave in and then die with no food someday in the dystopic future .. Hahnemühle Bugra Pastel Paper is probably eatable anyway!

Or maybe, based on the Roman numerals, it is something like "The Aenid" by Vergil. Also thought of "The Illiad" or the "Odyssey" by Homer, but he was Greek not Roman.

I love the letterpress, and I was just showing off that very feature of Horns last weekend. It would just be pretty steep to purchase 3 new letterpress editions just 6 weeks after the most recent letterpress offering. I'm sure it will be amazing either way, though.

I reckon the biggest expense in letterpress is the plates, not the printing. That's why we got a free upgrade for Haunting of Hill House, which originally was marketed as offset. Paul told us that since he already had the plates for the lettered edition, it made little sense not to also do the numbered edition as letterpress.

So I think one can reasonably expect that if the top tier edition is letterpress, the numbereds will also be.

The set of books (and all three editions) are printed letterpress, however you will be very pleased with the price points. Heck, it's basically a twofer!


I hereby request that Paul hire in a special photographer to do an extensive shoot of whatever the Roman numeral edition is.

That will be done for sure. There will be professional shots of the finished book once it's complete which is a little ways off.

Since the Roman Numeral edition is the first of it's kind offered, it will be opened up for sale to everyone. Lifetime subscribers or Lettered owners will not get early access to this because it's a brand new edition level. There is no connection between Lettered and RN. That's the fairest. So everyone has a crack at it if the funds and desire for it are there.

That would be great, but the only way to go a step beyond letterpress printing is if the Roman Numeral edition is instead illuminated and transcribed by hand like a pre-Gutenberg book.

I just unboxed my RB gift edition, and good lord it’s a beautiful book. I won’t spoil the details for those still waiting for it, but the case, book and dustjacket are a visual and tactile feast.

That's awesome. I am sure it is a magnificent book. That is a cool DJ. You have a good one there.

Mine will remain shrinkwrapped until I read it. I have about 8 books to read before I get to ROSEMARY'S BABY. My unshrinkwrapping video will be available on YouTube for a low fee of $39.95 and will be approximately 3 hours and 29 minutes long, with a ten minute intermission. Please do not talk or use your cell phone while watching the video. Thank you.

Thank you.Will it include really shitty camera angles that hardly show the book, bad audio, and please ramble on for an eternity before the book comes out? My favorite is when they keep holding the book up to show it in only ways that can damage the pages, dust jacket, binding. Love em!

Question for RB AGE owners: without spoiling it for those who haven't seen it, are any of you going to try displaying the other side of the DJ? Or would that ruin the DJ by forcing a re-fold, essentially?

No it's not delayed. This one is still very early on in production because I just finalized the quantity this morning, which is 100 paperweights. Turnaround time on these is usually about 3 weeks. So these will likely follow the Portfolio. It's going to be a heavy shipping month. I didn't even mention Brother. That's going to follow right on the heels of all this.

Talking about Brother, I received an early bound copy yesterday and it looks fantastic. If you haven't ordered yet, you can grab one here (https://shop.suntup.press/products/brother-by-ania-ahlborn-limited-edition).

Is Suntup still in the process of shipping RB? Should I be worried yet about not getting a shipping notice for either edition I ordered? Seeing it out in the wild (The Gift edition, at least) is making me antsy...

As far as I know, the GE are being sent out or all sent out. The numbered ed is going out at the end of the month. So if you ordered both the GE and numbered, it will probably ship out later when your number ships. At least, I think that's how it works. I am waiting for my numbered so I know they are not done shipping.

It was said upthread that if you ordered more then one edition they will ship together. Numbered a should be going out soon so if you ordered both a gift and numbered they ship when the numbered is ready to go.

I`m checking my mailbox everyday now, with that tingling feeling from inside my stomach. It feels like i am soon to recieve a delivered baby. .. has the numbered been sent? .. you see, the water just broke, and i`m a man .. !

.. and a general question probably a good to know for more than me, i know the answer as it contains a logic, but it`s good to verify : .. "If, .. only If .. i should buy a book using the instalment plan - i would not recieve the book before the instalment plan were completed" : True or false?

Paul, question about the Roman Numerical editions just to clarify. Those won't be offered during a private pre-sale but to everyone at the same time?

Correct, there won't be a private pre-sale for the Roman edition.

The new Status Updates page is something I put together over the weekend, which came out of the Survey responses. There were a good number of people asking for that, so there you go. I'll discuss this and other Survey responses on the FB live on 11/8.

[MikeDuke]

Looking forward to seeing a replay of the 11/8 FB live announcement since I won't be able to see it live.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Whatever it is, I can't afford it, but wish I could!

11/5/20 for the Horns portfolio? That’s not right, is it?

[zelig]

11/5/20 for the Horns portfolio? That’s not right, is it?

It's just an estimate, but yes it's correct. We're ahead of schedule on that one.

EDIT: That was supposed to be 2019, not 2020. I fixed it. My bad.

wow... good show brother. You def have a busy few weeks coming up for shipping!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Caliban]

Thank you Mike and Paul for the page on status updates, that answers my question

Rosemary`s Baby and The Road are certainly going back to back !

Spoiler: Can`t wait to see the Bronte sisters set being confirmed on monday the 4`th !

I love the mystery Paul & co, we all do. Never stop !

[MikeDuke]

I know these are estimates, and seeing The Road is ready to ship and Brother pretty close is exciting. But I don't understand how the numbered RB has a date of 11/7/19, which is next Thurs when the status still show that the binding and cases need to be done for the numbered. Again, I know these are estimates but that would be impressive.

Again, I know these are estimates but that would be impressive.

That stage of production is not complete as we sit here today, but they are almost complete. They will be changed to green when complete, which I have been told will be 10/31. 2-3 days to ship to me. 2-3 days to turn around and ship orders. That's how I get to the 11/7 estimate. So it's either green or red. There's no 'progress bar' for each stage of production. If there were, only the last letter of "bookbinding" might be red, but it's not practical for me to maintain the page at that level. I feel it's either complete or not complete, and that is sufficient in terms of status. And if I have a date, I will add the date, despite the fact that 'bookbinding's is in red. If there's a date, that means bookbinding, or any non-shipping stage is at the tail end of production. Hope that all makes sense.

[MikeDuke]

Got you Paul. I figured that it would turn Green when it is ready. If I said progress bar, I guess I used it in the wrong way. You know me Paul. It takes me a while to figure stuff out. Any way, it's a cool way of keeping
track of where things stand. I really like it.

[Patrick]

Excited for announcement day!

[Brian861]

Brain,
from the way I read it there won't be a pre-sale. Everyone will have a chance when it's released. Again, that's the way I read it.




I don't know if this was there all along and I just missed it, or it's something new but under the "news" tab there is something called "Status Updates". When you click on it you can
see how far along a book is and if it has a date that's the estimated shipping date for the book. Pretty cool.
Here is the page directly

[Caliban]

From the status page of Rosemarys Baby : `We have also spent extra time refining the Numbered edition by implementing several upgrades to the binding design`

Maybe you could tell us a littlebit about that refining process / decisions while we wait Paul. Just for the sake of curiosity, and to keep this thread going .. when and if you find the time in your busy schedule

Sidenote : The Road also went through a state of upgrade to a quarter leather binding. That is a naturally a very noticable change, are the refining concerning Rosemarys Baby something .. well .. noticable, and to which degree?

[Munnecom]

May I request spoiler tags, if Paul decides to answer?

[MikeDuke]

I can't imagine what could be done to make it "better" I mean the spine, binding and end papers are great as is. But Paul always finds a way.

[Caliban]

Paul always finds a way .. and spoiler tags, well .. maybe .. but, curiosity kills the cat and all that ..

Suntup doesn`t overdo the books (so far at least) .. keep it simple (let the quality speak for itself - as the editions so far very much seem to do), less is more etc .. darn i`m excited, think about it everyday now ..

Sure, I can do that. I'll put my response in spoilers for those who would rather see the book first.

I decided to edge gild the top edge in silver. I experimented with black, but I didn't like how it turned out. Silver looked best. So top edge gilding is one upgrade.

We experimented with several types of foil stamping on the cover for the cross, and nothing was acceptable for me. We couldn't get the foil to strike that note I was looking for. I tried glossy silver, matte silver, clear, blind, matte black, etc. Eventually I ended up using a similar method to the gold cross on Horns. We created a debossing die, and debossed the cover with the shape of the cross. Then we laser cut the crosses out of a silver metallic paper, and inset the cross into the debossed area. The result was exactly what I was looking for, and so much better than the foil stamping.

I took the cross design a little further, and instead of cutting the paper where it reached the top edge of the board, we continued it by wrapping it over the top edge, and then under the pastedown on the back. It's a unique effect.

The final upgrade was to the slipcase. We ended up covering the opening of the slipcase with silver paper. Not much more to say about that. It's best to see it to get a feel for what that looks like. Basically, the mouth of the slipcase is lined with the silver paper, so when the book is seated inside, and you look at it straight on, the silver frames the spine of the book.

That sounds really neat ...
... I liked how the Horns S/L had that effect with the gold around the book when you looked at it edge-on in the slipcase. Doing that here sounds like a great choice.

I think I am going to resist. I waited this long, might as well ride it out.

I was honored to have been able to meet up with the WORLD FAMOUS ARIEL BOSI at the Doctor Sleep premier last night! Thanks Ari, it was a really fun time.

And one with director Mike Flanagan.

And finally my best Jack Nicholson impression. I know, really bad.

[jeffingoff]

So now we can expect a Mike Flanagan collaboration? I hope it wasn't just all fun for you! It's too late to get Mike to sign/intro Haunting of Hill House. BUT WE CAN GET HIM ON THE SUNTUP EDITION OF GERALD'S GAME!! I'm hyperventilating here.

[jeffingoff]

In the photo with Ari, you look like you're auditioning for the role of Roland Deschain. Or some other steely eyed man in a black (and tan) suit. With Mike, I see you graduated to two drinks at a time! Looks like a fantastic evening. I'd have lost my mind had I been there. Was King in attendance?

That 2nd drink wasn't mine. I was holding it for the person taking the shot... And nope, Mr. King was not in attendance.

A future movie star!

[herbertwest]

So, when will Mike Flanagan write an introduction for Suntup? ;)

[Caliban]

Thanks Paul, for the update on Rosemary`s Baby, and probaly for keeping it spoiler free. As i have not yet held a Suntup edition in my hands, i have no references yet. So for me it`s mystical either way.

.. a haunting at Hill House reprint of the book with said Mike Flanagan would be nice, as i lost out on that edition. That is a joke of course, a bad one, but still a joke.

.. i`m reading Dr. Sleep these days. The Cemetery Dance edition. So you all know !

Lastly i would also thank Suntup for producing Horror genre books (which Paul finds in value of the treatment), in fine editions. That is a market that has been lacking ! Though i personally would like a collectible piece of said King (as i missed out on Misery) and do hope for one more chance in the future, there are also so many other treasures out there that also needs to be unlocked.

Note: I thought that Mr.King didn`t like the limited edition business, as it was only for people to show off on the shelves, but not to read. But, times change and that is now a good while ago, and the market change and everything. That said, it`s not entirely wrong either. Though i am going to read mine !

[Munnecom]

I disagree. There are myriad small presses that are publishing horror. Granted, most of the books are not on par with Suntup’s level of quality, but it would be almost impossible to keep up with everything.

In other news, I had a dream last night that I got an email from Paul announcing a sale with 50% off everything, including the new set that will be announced next week (sadly, the gods did not show me what it was).

When I woke up, I had an email from Paul...

... with a shipping notice for the Horns portfolio. :P

[Caliban]

`There are myriad small presses that are publishing horror` : Sure `.. most of the books are not on par with Suntup’s level of quality`: That`s what i mean

You probably have to look at say the likes of Arion Press (or not, but if only as an example this one time) to somewhat compare, as both deal in the league of say letterpress if that`s the thing to compare with. Arion f.ex have the occasional or very seldom horror title, like say `The Sundial` or `Frankenstein`if they even go under the term horror these days of blood and gore, but they are not a horror publisher per se

But you are correct, it`s all a matter of taste, and the definition of fine is in the eyes of the beholder. I have my favourite `gotot` publishers for standard or deluxe editions or whatever the term is, apples or oranges a guess. But for me i have to praise Suntup as it seem to be filling a void that I feel are missing.

[Brian861]

Received my shipping notice for the portfolio as well!

[MikeDuke]

Yep. Me too. Very excited.
EDIT: Tracking says next Wed for me. I hope that's right.

[MikeDuke]

Awesome email update on Brother. It looks really good. Looks like the pics are of the numbered ed and it does look awesome. Very excited for this one.

Yeah. The variations from one copy to the next make it very tempting to want multiple copies. Like the snakeskin pattern on Horns. I'll say that I've always been excited for this release. But after getting the ARC and seeing photos of the actual edition, I think this is going to be my favorite Suntup Edition. At least in the top three. At least until I see The Road. Or hold Rosemary's Baby. Or unbox I Am Legend.

'Tis ok. I don't care for some of King's or Hill's stuff either.
