I believe the Viking edition uses the new artwork that Phil Hale created for the second printing of the Grant edition.

That may be the case Brian, depending on the size of the printing.
Even now, I suspect it takes more than a single day to print a large first printing. This technology may just allow us to be more...

Author Hugh Howey posted this video recently where he discusses the collectability of print on demand books.

While I don't think the trim error that he shows is much of a big deal, I do find the...

You can also buy acid free/archival tape at Target, or basically anywhere that has art or scrapbooking supplies.

Better paper and sewn binding (vs. glued) as well.

Correct. One of the recent newsletters from PS said they had only just begun shipping them and didn't expect anyone other than some of the UK collectors to have them before Christmas.

Think of it as backup information for your family.
If something were to happen to you, would they know enough about what you have in your collection to sell them at the best price?

That's exactly what I do as well.
Although for Dr. Sleep I listed the additional cost of the V. Chong remarque in another column of my spreadsheet for whatever reason.

My Joyland extra sold pretty quickly and looking at the completed listings, so have about a dozen other copies.

I'm still undecided about keeping The Dark Man, so I listed it high to see what...

Cool, congrats Brian!
I hope he got a really nice book with lots of remarques for that.

Try the techniques in the How To thread first. Should be easier to remove from a slipcase than a book with hundreds of pages.
HOW TO: Remove Smoke Smell from Books

I'm pretty sure I can have plexi bent like that in the shop at work.
If anyone is interested, I can check on costs tomorrow.

RF, how thick is the plexi that your stand is made from? Looks like...

Maybe a blank copy that someone numbered on their own at somepoint in time?

I think I just threw up.

Matrix, I think I speak for everyone here when I say "I hate you." :biggrin: Kidding.
Welcome to the boards, if that book is legit, you win the award...

I'm not up on the current price of the S/L, but I believe it's usually several thousand dollars. Lettered would be more.
You're missing the dust jacket and the slipcase, so that would have an effect...

You found a signed/limited of The Gunslinger at a thrift store!?!!

The real question to me would be; is that the lettered edition OO? The lettered edition shown in the catalog just says AY, not...
