Resale value has nothing to do with production quality, just collectability.
It is beautiful. All the editions done of this book. Your the first person I ever heard say that. Do you own one of the editions? I wonder....[/QUOTE]
I've said on this forum before that I...
I'm fairly certain their deluxe oversized edition of A Book of Horrors, that King signed, was published before Christine and Pet Sematary.
nope[/QUOTE]
So far, PS have only published Lettered editions where King has agreed to sign them (Carrie and Thinner). They didn't bother for Christine or Pet Sematary, even though King has...
I don't like the inconsistency of having King's name at the top on two of the covers with the title at the bottom but the opposite way round on the third book. I can see that the artwork on The...
I used the following rough sum to justify buying Carrie.
Limitation of signature - 1,000
Importance of the book - 1,000
Likely production values - 500
Original art by Chadbourne - 95

I wonder if these 3 non-sales will merely reduce PS's profit by $10k or if it means they'll make a loss on the project?
But surely PS have already invalidated that notion of a set by not producing lettered editions of Christine and Pet Sematary, regardless of whether King signed them or not.
I'm not sure that random books from the same publisher can be considered a set. I doubt anyway who's got Subterranean Press editions of The Green Mile and The Shining with matching numbers or letters...
Agreed. That is exactly the point I was making in the other thread.
Came home from work to find a delivery card waiting for me. Have now got to try and get Friday off work so they can re-deliver. Not sure what's wrong with using Royal Mail, so I could have picked it...
That's not true. When Grant published Wind Through The Keyhole they wouldn't let me continue my numbered set just because my number was higher than 800. The book's limitation was set to 800...
As a purchaser of Carrie, I have no problem with Thinner going up for general sale. Given that Carrie took many days to sell out, I think that anyone who wants to buy a matching copy of Thinner will...
The latest PS newsletter has confirmed that there are still 2 copies of the Carrie Lettered edition unsold and they will be made available on the website soon.
The heading says SOLD OUT but the Add To Cart is still active and you can still put 2 copies in your cart.

Perfect price. Hopefully it will dissuade some of the chancers.
