No, you probably don't want to know! Left to right is, UK 1st with Morality, Scribner US 1st with Morality, CD US 1st with Player card, CD 2nd printing remarqued by Glen Chadbourne and Slipcased CD US 1st remarqued by McVey.

Now that you mention it, I never knew about the Scribner edition! I thought there was only the CD one.

Oh no, not another one to get. It's never ending.

[zelig]

Found one for $10 on Abe so just bought it. Thanks.

[jonp]

Wow! That didn't take long.

[zelig]

It was cheap enough so I didn't think about it too much. I didn't have that version and we can't have that now can we!

[jonp]

Of course, certainly not!

[jhanic]

Don't forget about the two CD proofs, too.

John

[zelig]

Yep, and the unbound one.

[jonp]

I have the unbound one, the trade cover proof is on my immediate list, the white proof will be a bit trickier.

[jhanic]

I forgot about the unbound one.

Thank you very much, Kris.

A couple of new additions today, an absolutely beautiful new proof which came with a 1st edition. The proof is in much better condition than I was expecting. There are less than 50 copies of this proof.

Proof #73 - Stephen King - Pet Sematary - US 1st State Uncorrected Advance Typewritten Proof



With the 2nd state Typeset Proof (on the right)



The differences with the spines (1st state below)



I will need an upgrade eventually for this, but for now it will be a place holder on the shelf.

Stephen King - Pet Sematary - US 1st/1st HB (1982 variant)

Superb addition, congrats!

[zelig]

Nice Jon. That proof looks like it's in the best condition I've seen.

[jhanic]

I agree. Beautiful!

John

[Dan]

Very nice proof to have, and in great condition indeed. Well done!

[The Library Policeman]

Looks like new, Jon. Congratulations!

[jcmanske]

Congratulations, Jon! I'd love to have either of those two proofs and their condition is stellar--well done! As you mentioned, the 1st state in any condition, let alone near perfect, is a very tough find.
