    That week went quick! Rare proof Wednesday part 2.

    I thought this week I would have a double posting and it seems appropriate to reveal these two proofs together. The US proof is moderately easy to find but this one is in particularly nice condition. The UK proof is extremely scarce and is rarely seen. It's not in as excellent condition as the US proof but due to it being so rare I didn't pass on the opportunity to own it.

    Proof #87 - Stephen King - The Eyes Of The Dragon - US Advance Uncorrected Proof



    Proof #88 - Stephen King - The Eyes Of The Dragon - UK Advance Uncorrected Proof

    Thanks Chad. Proof collecting is fascinating but expensive and you'll never say you have them all, like you could with a set of first editions.

    Nice job, Jon!

    Chad, the thing about collecting proofs is that there is always one more than you never heard of before still out there. It's a never-ending quest.

    There are a few new releases coming out in the second and third weeks of June which I'm really looking forward to; Stephen King's End of Watch, Justin Cronin's The City of Mirrors and Joe Hill's The Fireman. Of those titles, the one I'm most excited about is The Fireman, especially after I heard Joe read a chapter last October in the UK. I am now lucky enough to find an advance copy of the book (I'm not going to read this copy but keep it in mint condition). I think Jeremy asked Gollanz how many copies they produced of the UK proof and I think they said there were only approximately 100 copies made. I have only seen two copies for sale so far, both on eBay, the first in Ireland which went for an incredible £300 and this copy. I was fortunate to get mine for under half that price mostly due to it being a UK only auction, therefore it seemed to remain more-or-less under the radar. Less competition from the US buyers!
    This is my first Joe Hill proof and really happy it is one of the rarer ones.

    Joe Hill - The Fireman - UK Advance Uncorrected Manuscript Proof (With Promo Postcard)

    The book - the publishers must have changed the release date after producing these proofs as there is a sticker with the date on the back cover. I seem to recall the original release date being in May.




    The Promo Postcard

    Nice Jon! I'm envious. Is this the regular U.K. proof or is it another state of the U.K. proof?

    Thanks Paul. I assume it's just a regular UK proof. The front cover looks the same as photos I've seen before but I've never seen photos of the back cover of other copies. Just need the US proofs now especially the first state.
