updated about Danse Macabre : .doc file..
if someone could convert it to pdf... n host it...

**Matt** · 01-15-2008 07:22 AM

I actually sent the one you gave me over to Jerome to see if we could figure out a way to get those pics on the site herbert. You are right, that's a huge file with a lot of pics.

**herbertwest** · 02-28-2008 12:20 PM

I ve got a pdf file for Danse Macabre

could anyone host it? (too big for the website)

**herbertwest** · 03-07-2008 04:06 AM

anyone?

**herbertwest** · 03-18-2008 07:00 AM

thanks for the nice illustrations (F13, and the dismissed project of Shining...)
Does anyone know if a new edition with Before the Play, is planned for Shining?
(of course, without the lost epilogue...)

main subject updated with a PDF version for the Danse Macabre pictures.

I keep hoping for a new edition of The Shining, containing not only the "Before the Play" but the probably lost "After the Play". I doubt it will ever happen, though.

I don't think that Jerad at Centipede Press has given up on the project just yet. There is still a chance but I share your pessimism, John.

When I talked with King about After the Play when it appeared in an auction listing, he expressed no interest in recovering that lost bit of ephemera.

According to the auction listing it was very short anyway.....one or two pages if my memory is correct. He could probably whip out a much better one pretty quickly....if he was so inclined.

**herbertwest** · 03-18-2008 10:28 AM

that short?

**Ari_Racing** · 03-18-2008 06:59 PM

Yeap...I read somewhere that it was only two pages.

and I keep thinking that someday, "magically", King will "find" the lost "after the play" and allow a S/L with it.
I think we'll never know if the one he'd find would be the original or a new just written.

Actually...I don't really care...as soon as he publishes it I'm done

Here is the auction listing from PBA Galleries, 9/23/93. I have no idea who bought it or for what price. The afterward is described as 4 manuscript pages which would probably be less than that in a finished book.

Thanks, Carlos! I wish I was the one who has that!

Yeah, me too. I was not even aware of the auction. I didn't even get this catalog until about 4 or 5 years ago. Now I look over the listings and just drool. It was solely King material collected by John McLaughlin. I got the catalog from Michael Autrey who was some sort of a consultant for the auction.

But in 1993 I wouldn't have been in a position financially to pursue such an item so it really doesn't make any difference that I didn't know of the auction.

**Ari_Racing** · 03-19-2008 07:41 AM

Did you manage to track who won it?

No. I don't think PBA Galleries or any auction house for that matter would give out personal information on a bidder.

i guess that you guys all know, but just in case...

In 2004, there was a project of a BD based on the Dark Tower which was initiated, before getting aborted, to the profit of Marvel: this project would have been illustrated by several people, and it would have cover the whole saga (if i remember well)
Official webpage with scenarii, illustrations..

To update a wee bit the catalog, (without real illustrations), here are some interesting fanart:

(including some Dark Kocurek)

(really nice DT and Talisman fanarts!)

**herbertwest** · 06-26-2008 04:33 AM

could someone check on F13 and tell me who did illustrate Everythings eventual?

unfortunately, my CD seems to do not being able to install completely anymore...

**DanishCollector** · 06-26-2008 05:19 AM

I will give it a try, but won't be home until tonight. I haven't had F13 in computer for years. If I remember correctly, I couldn't seem to find any name back then, but maybe the illustrator is one of the makers of the CD-ROM.
I will dig into it.

**DanishCollector** · 06-26-2008 04:18 PM

In the Credits section of F13 it says:
Animators: Mike Brown and Steve Kim.
I guess for the whole CD-ROM, not just Everything's Eventual.

**Ari_Racing** · 06-26-2008 04:44 PM

Yeap, that's right
I guess it'll have to remain as "Rare illustrations".

**herbertwest** · 07-18-2008 04:15 AM

i've found the following illustrations (by Michael Whelan & Erik Wilson) of The Little Sisters of Eluria, BUT i do not know if they have been published, or not yet and will be in the combined Gunslinger + Eluria..

could someone tell me?

**Bev Vincent** · 07-21-2008 06:59 AM

The top two, at least, were published in Legends where the novella first appeared.
