    Another Question from a Newbie Collector - I recently bought a UK edition paperback of The Waste Lands, simply because the cover caught my eye. I absolutely LOVE it ( I believe it was drawn by John Avon ). I paid 30 dollars, not sure if it was technically worth it, but it was worth it to me - because, as I said, the cover is striking to me and I love it.

    My question - is there a depot someplace of all the DT covers? US and UK, all editions?

    Thanks again my friends.

    Here's a link SK Book Covers. If you click on the individual books, you get TONS. Looks like it hasn't been updated since DT was completed, though.

    A note of interest for collectors, I just read an article stating that Abe.com has been bought out by Amazon.com. Good news - it will remain operating as an independent company.

    NOT a collecting question, but dont really know where to post it:
    the official website presents "Nightmares in the sky" as a "Coffee table book"..
    hmmm, how are we supposed to understand it? lol

    That simply means that the book is an oversized hardcover.

    So big, the only place you can keep it is on the coffee table.

    Funny - I always think of Coffee Table Books as also more expensive, made with fancy paper and oversized with brilliant color, etc. So fancy you leave it on the coffee table when people come to visit, rather than put it on a shelf.

    Default Book Misprint????

    My version of Song of Susannah, the binding is upside down, are there any others like it? Is it rare, valuable, or am I just going crazy?

    just wondering??? I didnt notice until I pulled of the paper cover, so not to damage it reading it----again.

    Hi, trunks - and welcome to the site! We have a phenominal group of collectors and SK experts on here who I'm sure would be able to give you an evaluation of your book. You might want to post it in this thread, though, to make sure they see it.

    It wasn't one of my DT books (thankfully) but my copy of Insomnia about three quarters of the way through there is about 35 pages missing. Just thought I would share.

    i wonder if there is a way to find out how many of those they printed before someone caught the mistake.

    I think it would have to be very distinctive to be worth something. Although, I'm not a collector so I could be completely wrong, which is why the suggestion to post this in the collectors' forum is a good one.

    I bought a copy of "The Force of Reason" that had a similar mistake, but was able to return it to B&N the next day. As far as I know, they destroy them once they're returned to the seller.
