So do I.

You don't win friends with salad. So I guess I shouldn't post this since it is derailing the pain train.

We now have enough members to form a “movement”.

Or something.

Can there be a secret handshake?

Can there be a secret handshake?

Yes, right after the bowel "movement".

Sounds like an episode of Springer.

May I suggest a washing of hands in between?

Has anybody received there copies yet? Curious to hear, the pictures look great, in my opinion better than the lettered.

[Randall Flagg]

There is no set of pictures I have seen that indicate the Roman numeral editions are superior to the lettered editions.
Bill from Sub Press publicly stated they were no where near as fancy/elaborate as the lettered books.
Obviously since there were only 10 made, they are more rare than the 52 lettered editions, but that doesn't in any way mean they are a superior production.
Any thoughts like that are likely from a person trying to justify their spending such a large amount.

Wasn't saying superior, only that I liked the design of straight leather versus colored stamps or djs much better. The pictures Camelot sent looked GREAT I thought.

I too like the debossed leather cover.

The inside of the tray case is plain white card, other than that the absence of anything embossed on the book and tray case gives it quite a special presence. The two different shades of blue are really quite exceptional.
I was expecting a far lower standard after the comments made, however this is not the case.
I purchased it purely for the rarity.
Nonetheless you will not be disappointed if you are expecting a copy.

We are all greatly appreciated for your review. Hopefully images will do more justice

Congratulations! I am sure that Room 217 Edition will add another exciting chapter to King’s long list of collectibles.

Agreed, look forward to receiving my copy.

I've added these to Alec's thread, but it made sense to post them here as well:

[Ari_Racing]

SO BEAUTIFUL!

Congratulations! I love it!

[St. Troy]

It looks blue in the photos, but it's actually black, isn't it?

Quite striking, bold, simple design.

No, It's very Blue. Alec and I agreed on "Cornflower Blue'

[St. Troy]

Nice.

[kingfan2323]

Anyone have solid info on whether Sub Press is printing #5 and #6 of Locke and Key Limited Edition?



seeking: anything DT related #246
Night Shift Anniversary Ed. (blue skull cover)

[Patrick]

Beautiful! I like them so much more now knowing they are that lovely shade of blue rather than the genre-standard black.

[Hunchback Jack]

Just stunning. The blue leather and iridescent traycase material are gorgeous.

Is there any printing on the spine of book or case?

HBJ

[webstar1000]

That book is pretty.. BUT I hate that they don't have a special signature page. For me, that takes SO MUCH away from it.

[Lot guy]

The leather on the book is BLACK Leather, Traycase Blue with grey textured inside, this is what my copy looks like and after talking with other buyers sounds like there's are the same. I agree Patrick it is a Beautiful book too bad the regular lettered didn't have this design, but if it did I guess the 217 wouldn't.
