Auction #11
The Stephen King Illustrated Companion
Signed by Bev Vincent
Slipcased by The Overlook Connection

**many thanks to Sam, Bev and Dave H. for this wonderful donation**

An interactive approach to King’s greatest works, The Stephen King Illustrated Companion features a wealth of unseen memorabilia from the author’s desk and insightful text that reads between the lines to uncover King’s own compelling biography. Supplemented with rare and previously unpublished ephemera from King’s archives, such as hand-edited manuscript drafts, revealing letters between King and his editor, and personal mementos from his career, this unique companion volume tangibly illuminates the writer’s works and life in a way never done before.

Hey Matt,

I would like to have my beam bucks entry on this one if I could.

Those are only for the giveaways BROWNINGS CHILDE :(

Hopefully something will come along that you can put them on but we can't do it for auctions.

Matt, do you know what the ending date for this auction will be? :unsure:

Oh, this is super cool !!!!

Just placed my bid.

Awesome donation Sam, Bev and Dave H. Very, very generous!

Ending date should be March 15th but I started it right after midnight so it may decide to go until the 16th.

Thank you! :D

This copy was signed in the parking lot outside the Barnes & Noble in Atlanta after King's appearance there for Under the Dome last fall. I didn't really have anything to do with this donation -- credit due unto others.

There's something else y'all. The slipcase that is included with the book is, according to Dave H. of Overlook Connection, the prototype for a case they are working on for The SK Illustrated Companion. There's no writing on it, but the book fits it wonderfully and is in excellent condition. For those who have seen the book, you know how tough this was to find even in good condition. Good luck y'all.

:D

Aw Bev, you have always been such a great supporter of this fundraiser and having time for fans to sign a book deserves some appreciation.

But thanks for pointing that out. :couple:

I know somebody won it, but who was it?

Looks like the beautiful sarah was the winner, Sam.

Closed Auction

It does look that way don't it. Thanks Pam.

Yep, it was Sarah Sam. So busy the last few days sending my daughter and grandkiddies home.

She got in touch with me Matt. Let me know when we're good to go and I'll send the book on its way.

If she gave you her new address Sam I would say ship away. I know she's totally good for it :wub:

totally :couple:

thanks sam and matt. :D I'm super excited.

I'll ship it as soon as I can, but give me a few days sarah; my wife had chemo Wednesday and isn't doing very well today. It may be Monday before I can send it out.

Sam FTW! How kind and generous of you. Great donation!

Yes, Bev, but you have done a lot for the fundraiser just being here on tdt.com, signing your books for giveaways and auctions, and providing great insight into King's writing for all fans.

Thank you so much Sam. My book came today and is now resting on my bookshelf. :couple:

Very cool sarah, but what do you really think about it?:P
