It was an emotional moment when I finally got the matching set.....This site made it possible, as did the help of Stu at Betts and Karen at DMG who acted as the secure handlers of the books!!.
I dont know about others on here, but i'd been a long time King fan as a teenager, but had never heard of the Dark Tower until I bought Douglas Winters book on King (The Art of Darkness) from a second hand bookshop in New York in the summer of 1987 while I was on a student exchange from the UK. Not only was I amazed to discover a King book i'd never heard of, I was even more fascinated when I found my own name associated with the title.....Michael Whelan!!
At that point I was hooked and I wrote to Donald M Grant to try and get a copy and even went to the British Library as they are supposed to have a copy of every book published - needless to say they didnt have the DT1!!. All I could buy was the just published DTII trade edition. Even that was pricey with my zero income and a student grant!!! 30 years on and I just hope that we will see some more DT books - i'm optimistic as Mr King said there would be more at the reading he did in Paris that we went to.
"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
Wow wow wow. What else
Can you say?

You can find DTV #109 HERE if Alec is interested...
One can never have too many signed 'slingers...
Thank you OneFathom.
I most certainly will consider that possibility.
Must compliment you on a first class site for recovering required numbers. Excellent!!
Kindest regards

Yep, unfortunately I have #644, so no matching Gunslinger for me. I started with DT4 and was able to buy the next 5 books from Grant. I found DT3 on Ebay and then Rick helped me find the last book, DT2, two years ago. It took me about 13 years to complete.
I've thought about purchasing a full set under 500 or possibly trying to find the very rare PC copy. I do have a very fine Gunslinger 1st, signed/personalized to me by King and double signed and remarqued by Whelan - so that's a pretty nice place holder!
Wanted: Human skin edition of The Book of the Dead. Will accept PC copy.
