The Collectible Ray Bradbury

[wolfehr]

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

Dan - I got this copy from James Pepper Rare Books

[Scoogs]

What will be the cornerstone of my non-SK collection arrived today!!!

That's a really nice signature. Looks like he used a brush marker/pen to get the lettering like that. Congrats!

[wolfehr]

Thanks! The book was "deposited for copyright on May 10, 1947" so I think this it's probably one of the earlier signatures.

Nice. I picked up the Gauntlet S/L of DARK CARNIVAL (an expanded version of the Arkham edition) a number of months ago, and was very, very pleased to finally have a copy to add to my Bradbury collection.

Very nice. I went back and forth on that one for quite a while, but didn't pull the trigger.

[WeDealInLead]

I was a little skeptical about the PS edition of Something Wicked but it does seem like a nice edition. That said, Centipede announced they'll be publishing the definitive edition so I'll be holding out for that one.

Can't wait to see what Jerad does with this.

[richardsrarebooks]

Centipede does some great things but just because they say they are publishing the "definitive" edition doesn't make it so.

[RC65]

I was a little surprised to see that Centipede was publishing yet another limited reprint of SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES. The Gauntlet S/L HC -- which I have -- was done, I thought, well and tastefully, and for intents and purposes put the need for a limited to bed. Then PS came along and did another deluxe (unsigned by Bradbury) reprint...okay, fine; if you like Chadbourne, you'll like that volume, I suspect. And now yet another unsigned deluxe reprint? Is there really a need -- or demand? --for yet a third volume? I love Centipede and I'm sure they'll do an impressive job, but that dead horse has already been beaten once...does it really need another beating? 'Course, I suppose the capitalist answer for that will be in sell-through, and Centipede has a darn good track record in that department, so time will tell and I wish them luck. In principle, though, it's a little unfortunate to see.

I was thinking the same thing. I'm sure PS's is a fine presentation, as will be Centipede's. But why are we doing this again? Also, if I'm buying a signed limited edition, I want it signed by the author, which it obviously can't be.

Big congrats on THE HALLOWEEN TREE...that's the one that continues to elude me adding it (at a decent price) to my Bradbury collection. Very envious.

Tks a lot...
A longer time ago I had the opportunity to buy the Halloween Tree LETTERED with the metal box and tree for a very good price,
but I had unfortunately already spent a lot of money for other S/L + Lettered Stephen King + Ray Bradbury books... chance missed.... :-(
Now, after all I have the very nice HT book...

I thought this was pretty neat

I've been eyeing up the PS publishing Long After Midnight, does anyone know if there is illustrations in it?
