It's likely to go beyond what I wish to pay.

Interesting. That means he has at least 3

There might be a problem here.

The seller sold one for $200 with one bid on an auction ending April 4. Here's the picture...


He sold one for $130 today. Here's the picture...



He has one up for auction. Here's the picture...



It looks like he's printed up a few of these.

Since he's now a member here, I'd really like an explanation.

[Kingfan24]

It's either that or he just used the same picture three times.

AS would I... this seems to be shady. VERY shady...

[Kingfan24]

I actually figured out who this guy is. If these are fakes he's seriously risking his reputation.

Niels first posted his in the Pride and Joy thread.

Haven't seen anyone posting one of these:

When Ari posted a picture of one in the Promotional items thread, Niels offered to buy some for those interested. There were a dozen of us interested. dnemec received a box full of them and shipped them on to us.

Are you willing to buy a few and ship them on, Niels? I would volunteer to be the US buyer and distributor as it seems there are a few of us interested in them.

I'm in the Umbrella Club. It is one of my favorite King promo items. I have not opened it though.

I am also a member of the "Umbrella club" and brought it with us to last End of Watch signing in case needed.
Have to check it made it back to my Library and is not still in wife's car for potential daily use.

Hi all,

I've not been back since I posted the picture of the broadside some time ago--I'm grateful for the information about it, and to see that there's some interest here.

I had a total of THREE signed broadsides (and a few that are unsigned). I also had a small stack of Stephen King DREAMCATCHER promo ledgers.

These are absolutely, emphatically authentic, and I care very much about the integrity of these items.

I reused the picture for a second listing without thinking that this might raise questions regarding the items' authenticity. Then, I reused it a third time because I made a deal with a member to list it as a "buy it now" at a certain price that we mutually agreed on, and he purchased it.

I'm happy to photograph the three broadsides I have with emphasis on the signatures, etc. The signatures are real, and collected in person about two years ago.

Please feel free to reach out if anything else comes up. I'm grateful for this forum and its excellent members.

Thanks!
M.

Reusing some generic picture usually won't raise any suspicions, but reusing a picture for a unique item usually will.

I'm pleased to hear that they are real signatures.

[mikeabo123]

It wasn't the smartest move, in retrospect, and I'll admit that I feel a twinge of anxiety that others are concerned that they're not real.

They are real! I've been a collector of rare books in the horror field (in my case, mostly early-20th century pulp, Lovecraft, etc.) for a long time, and would never in my right mind try to pass off anything that's not completely genuine.

When I have access to my collection Thursday morning, I'll post very clear, neat pictures of all three signatures as well and will leave them available for dissection!

Thanks for stopping by to clarify.
I don't understand though: on your first post, you were suggesting it might be a variant that you hadn't seen before and asking for thoughts on what it could be. If you had three with signatures collected in person, how did you not know what it was?
Look forward to seeing the additional pics

[mikeabo123]

Hi there,

They were collected in person by the individual from whom I inherited them, my aunt--not me.

Will look forward to posting the pictures soon.

Thanks,
M.

[Randall Flagg]

Let the member have a chance to show the pics.

Mike-

I'm looking for a Dreamcatcher Ledger...if you have one to sell, let me know.

David

[mikeabo123]

Here are photographs of the additional broadsides! I hope this clears up any confusion, and I apologize for the misunderstanding that I may have caused.






Thanks!

[mikeabo123]

Hi David,

I don't have any more of these items--sorry about that. They've all been sold now.

Best wishes in your collecting,
Mike
