Wow, a ton of great and interesting additions to the collection, Jon. Was great to scroll through them all.

A short RPW run. This proof I've had some trouble obtaining, but finally managed to get a copy. The 2nd state proof resulted from King being unhappy with the original proof having out of order pages. The 2nd state corrects the page order. Apparently, there were only 24 copies printed. Does it seem like they're more?
#142 - Stephen King / Richard Bachman - The Regulators - US 2nd State Advance Uncorrected Proof
Hooray! RPW is back! I was unaware there were 2 Regulator proofs. Good one, Jon!
Very nice adds, Jon!
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
Proof #143 - Stephen King - The Dead Zone - US Uncorrected Advance Proof With Publisher's Letter
I didn't know you had a copy with the publisher's letter, Jon. That is very cool!
Very cool, Jon!
PS. I received the postcards many thanks.
PPS. Can you send me your paypal address?
PPPS. Thanks
Are those two different colored proofs?
I looked inside my copy, and there is a very faint adhesive tape stain on the first page, almost as if a publisher's letter was initially affixed there. I wonder if they attached the letter to every copy. But I don't have the letter.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.
And the people bowed and prayed, to the cell phone god they made...
Nice add, Jon!

Thanks Alan, I will PM you now!
I think the proofs are the same, Steve. The right one is definitely more orangey than the yellow left one, looking at them in good lighting. It maybe differences in the way they were stored?
Thank you, Brian.
Wednesday again. Two more to go after this one -- a scarce UK proof and also my new P&J proof that I bought for a steal and it will be the rarest of my proofs.
With the addition of this week's elusive proof, I think, I have completed my Blockade Billy collection.
Proof #144 - Stephen King - Blockade Billy - US Uncorrected Advance Inter-Office Proof (One of 16 copies?)
All the CDs Blockade Billies -- unbound Proof, Interoffice Proof, Review proof, 1st slipcased 1st remarqued by McVey, 1st with baseball card, 2nd printing with Chadbourne remarqued, S/L and Lettered.
Very nice, Jon!

Very nice! And I'm really curious about your newest P&J... especially when it's even scarcer than some of the hard-to-find ones you already own...
Interesting that your unbound BB proof has a colored title--mine does not (see post #594 in my collection thread). Another variant?
John
Thanks Brian.
Thanks Michaël. My new P&J is a proof, I thought, I'd never own due to it's scarcity and also when they come up for sale the prices are prohibitive. My recent enquiry in the "proof" thread will give you a clue.
Hi John, I hope you are well. I think my unbound BB proof is the same as the others, apart from it's marked up afterwards with yellow highlighter pen and "color?" written above the coloured in section.
I expected as much... wow!
Looks like you hit a home run.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

WOW... you have ALL "bases" covered there.. no pun intended mate
