Very cool of Tomas to donate this. And very sneaky of him to keep it secret he still had one
And it's currently MINE!!
"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

Wow! Didn't know the black version was rare. I bought one from Betts last year for $30.
The black STAND version is rare. It was only released/sold in white because I felt the white complimented the light color of the DJ on the Stand best. There's a similar color schemed Salem's Lot traycase, which I know Betts bought a few of. If you managed to get a black Stand case for $30 then you made out like a bandit.
Thanks much,

I have that one, as well. It was also $30. Is that one also only one of ten?The black STAND version is rare.

No...that's the normal color for Salem's Lot cases as that follows the colors on the DJ. There were no "alternate" cases made for Salem's Lot (or any other cases besides The Stand)I have that one, as well. It was also $30. Is that one also only one of ten?The black STAND version is rare.
