"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
Hi team. Quick question that I probably know the answer to but would like confirmation of:
Is the colour of Misery on the spine of the first edition supposed to be be red? My two copies are slightly different shades of pink, and I am assuming they have sun faded. Can someone please confirm for me?
Thank you.
Red. (Check the catalog.)

Mine's bright red. Probably is sun faded.
Not sure if you're referring to the US or UK, but I checked both of mine, and the red color on the spine is the same as on the cover on both. It also matches the red on the inner flap. So it sounds like you may have some fading there.
Hi John, thanks and I did go looking for it there but only found the PS anniversary entry. Am I missing a section somewhere?

Ah thank you, I have been looking in the limited section! Duh.
Should match the cover.
Yeah I figured it should. Thanks guys. Looks like a need a new Misery first edition sometime.
Bummer, just noticed my Gerald's Game spine is pink too. Guessing that should match the red on the cover...
Yep.
John
With the price of postage the way it is (cost more then the book is worth).... Better to have someone pick you up 2nd hand copies & just send you the dustwrappers.IMHO
What do you guys think of this Stephen King signature. I think it's good, but would like the informed opinion of our experts here. Thanks.

I'm gonna go good on this one.
I'll defer to others, but it does look like sigs from that time period.
