Love it, is there a story behind how you found an uncirculated Firestarter S/L?

Somehow I found the publisher. There was a Firestarter dust jacket for sale on a book site that I had never used or knew existed, and he told me he was the publisher. So I enquired!Originally Posted by racerx45

It's turned out to be a fine day indeed. Got this one from the Camelot "Grant" sale. It's supposed to have a damaged traycase but I honestly can't find anything wrong.

Two huge additions to your collection, congratulations Becca...
Very nice adds, Becca!
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
Congratulations both !
May I ask what are the unseen correspondances about? Those are the kind of cool stuff that Bob used to share and was interesting as bringing an insight of the relation between the publishers & Steve

That is really cool, Becca. I get his concern about Cujo based on his writings before. But, to me, writing about shit that could actually happen is tons scarier IMO. Plus, Cujo has always been a huge favorite of mine; along with Christine.

Are those photocopies or originals?
If those are original... DAMMMMMMMMM. SCORE!!!
HELP ME FIND
Insomnia #459
ANY S/L #459
These were copied for me direct from the originals (publisher's personal correspondence, which he still has).

I would say that's almost as good. Did Mr. Berman include a statement that this is a photocopy from his personal files? I used to own an out-of-series NLR that came with some other items, and the set included a letter from Michael Alpert that he had assembled the set specifically for the recipient. So even though some items weren't true originals, they were straight from the source so (IMO) still quite collectible.
Wow. Firestarter is one of my favourite S/Ls so that alone is reason enough to celebrate, but those letters are a real gem. I love seeing the behind the scenes stuff. Thanks for sharing and congratulations.

To unwrap or keep wrapped, that is the question?

Keep wrapped, but tell us what it is. Everyone else will probably say to unwrap.
Never open
Congrats becca!!!! Amazing additions
It's there under the Spoiler tag!

Yet another great acquisition!! Way to go Becca!!
Duh. Missed that! I've coveted that book since the late 80s when I could have bought a copy for around $50. Oh well, some day... congratulations! Never seen one with the original wrapping.It's there under the Spoiler tag!
Nice, Becca!

BIG congrats for the ES / EP Becca !!!
I remember when an US seller sold several original wrapped ES. I asked Mr K๖rber / owner Edition Phantasia if he remembered whether he used this paper. Unfortunately he could not.....
I had not bought one of them, hope it is the ES/EP and not New York phone book.

Fantastic new additions, Becca. Thanks for sharing photos of the Phantasia letters -- a great insight into the publishing world.
