So....... I think I'm done with Revival:
From left to right: Hodder Collectors Set, WH Smith Variant Cover, Waterstones Blue Trim Edition, USA Hardcover, Regular UK Trade Edition.
All 1st/1st Editions & Prints.
Thank goodness I don't collect proofs!!!
Also received a couple of UK paperbacks I didn't have:
"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
Finally, a very good friend here on the forum kindly sent me this.
Chadbourne The Dark Half Art Print:
I only have a few art pieces in my collection and this is a welcome addition which I love!!
Big thanks to my good buddy for this.
Very Nice Alan, I will have to see which US Revival I get. I may HAVE to get the other variant.
Ha! Oh you will get the other variant, Jon. No MAY about it!
Congrats Alan for the 5 x Revivalīs !!!
Only the best looking is missing, the PL Revival with Vincent Chong cover....

In Canada at Chapters (we do not have the Books a Million or Barnes n Noble), our only book store in Nova Scotia, the book is $36CAD + HST. The book is well over $40 bucks. Now.. I can walk into Costco and pay half the price and thus half the tax. We buy everything there and got the executive membership. We get back 1% I think of all we buy... we got back over $600 this year! That is a lot. We use it for business too but I love it there for personnel too. Just my savings on books this year alone has made it worth it!

Congratulations on all this!! I'm just waiting for a few of the Revival editions to come in, and will post them all then. I've counted 8 editions that I'll have once they all arrive. If you include the UK proof, that's 9. Should all be here some time next week.
