I searched around online the other day and wasn't able to find anything. I have a couple more resources I want to tap. I'll update if I discover anything.

[Randall Flagg]

Not sure of the artist for the images you have provided, but The Body is one of 4 stories that originally appeared in Different Seasons

[herbertwest]

Yep, I know.
And I am also wondering if only The Body have been illustrated or not.

If yes, it would make sense to think that the illustrations are in a book with only that story, no?

Note : the text under the images is in english... so English/ American edition???

[Randall Flagg]

The U.S. Trade First edition has the most minimal of illustrations-4 total that precede each of the stories. They are not much more than a box with the four season icons placed each in a corner, with the title of the story in the middle.

i'm not sure this is it but there was an 80 page illustrated paperback edition of the body published in a condensed version by penguin longman publishing in 1999. it was a penguin reader, something for kids, so if this is where the illustrations came from it's not too surprising that it would be easily overlooked by collectors. can't find any info on the artist. amazon has a few copies available here if anyone wants to pick one up.

[Brice]

I need that. I don't think I've seen that before.

[Mr. Rabbit Trick]

I need that. I don't think I've seen that before.

Don't expect a 1st impression. I think it's about the 15th now.

[Brice]

Well, I'm not sure I'll get one, but do you know how I could tell which it was?

Thank you for the info!
Do anyone have this edition?
If anyone is going to buy it, could you let us know if this is that edition, and if there is more illustrations???

thanks!

No way of knowing from Amazon. They were selling 5th impressions years ago.

I meant what would I see in the book that would tell me...something like fifteenth printing?

[Randall Flagg]

The printint ling on the copyright page might read:
15 16 17 18 19 20

[Brice]

So, if there is a full numberline than it would be a first?

[Randall Flagg]

I all likelyhood, yes.

[jhanic]

I just ordered one. I'll let you know what it is when I get it.

I have this edition but had forgotten all about it. I just dug it out. The illustrations are indeed from this book. The artist is Ian Andrew.

The book was (according to the copyright page) published first in 1994 by Penquin books. My edition was published in 1999.

[jhanic]

If anyone on this board would have it, it would be you, Carlos!

The 1999 book is the Penguin Readers version. It is different from the original 1994 version, which is very hard to find.

[Ruki]

oh good! i was hoping i'd found the right book, i'm just so broke that i couldn't spend the ten bucks to find out.

[herbertwest]
