    Given a probable money-problem with a capital B, I'm just hoping that I manage an End of Watch to complete my set, and keep up with the CD & PS preorders. I don't know if I can even manage this, but that is what I'm hanging on to as my goal. A few great deals on minor items may pop up that I can't resist, but most of my major book wants are on hold right now. :\
    WANTED
    US 1st Printings. I have THESE
    #92 IT Portfolio (or the #95 IT to swap for the #92 that I have)
    Any #95 SK-related Cemetery Dance Edition
    Any #7 PS Publishing Edition
    Sleeping Beauties: Signed Tour version.

    Any help with reaching these goals would be much appreciated!
    Michaël,

    I have some Dan Simmons stuff that you might like. The prices will be very low...not much more than postage. Most of my Simmons books are in boxes somewhere so I'll find what ihave and send you a list. I do see a chapbook on my desk called "Going After the Rubber Chicken." Not sure if it's signed but I'll try to get a note to you in less than a week.

    There's still so much to add to this collection before I can be satisfied. With that being said, I'll be looking for some missing lettered/deluxe editions:
    1) Danse Macabre
    2) My Pretty Pony
    3) 'Salem's Lot Black Numeral
    4) Cujo
    5) Colorado Kid 1/33 (Chadbourne and Potter editions -- NO PCs)
    6) Skeleton Crew (Presentation Copy)
    7) Eyes of the Dragon (both red and black letters)

    And looking for additional early first editions (US and UK) in Fine/Fine condition as well as at least 25 "later" UK first editions in the best condition possible. Here are a few that I have in mind:
    1) US Shining
    2) US IT
    3) UK Carrie
    4) UK Green Mile
    5) UK EOTD

    I'll probably sell my remaining proofs (TNLR - 2 versions, Six Stories, Inscribed Green Mile 1-6, etc.) along with some duplicate lettered books (The Stand, Buick 8, etc.). Lofty goals but I really just want to have fun searching for some of the more scarce titles.

    I'll trade my F/F UK EOTD for one of your spare lettereds!
    "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

    I will be collecting many lotto tickets throughout the year in the hopes that one will be a winner

    In another (un)reality I wouldn't mind getting a full set of US PB Bachman books.

    I also wouldn't mind "collecting" the HF's grand prize this year.

    June already so I searched for my goals. I have to update some since my hunt list was modified a little bit (some items were added, some others deleted).

    * One for the road illustrated
    * The long walk UK 1st
    * The running man UK 1st
    * The Plant #1 unsigned
    * The Plant #3 unsigned

    * At least 1 of the 12 1st fiction appearances' magazines I'm missing. - There were 24 items in total and I got one so far, so I'll change it to 1 out of the 23 I'm missing
    * At least 5 of the 13 1st fiction appearances' books I'm missing. This was changed to 19 pieces missing. Now it's 18. I'll keep 5 out 18.
    * At least 2 of the 19 promo items I'm after. Two items added to my want list. I'll stick with 2 out of 21.
    * At least 3 more 1st edition books signed by King. I got 6 since January.
    * At least 2 S/L books I'm missing. I got 4.
    * At least 30 of the 145 magazines I'm missing that include an original non-fiction piece. I got 26 but expanded the list to 168. So my goal is 40 out of the 168.
    * At least 10 of the 33 books I'm missing that include an original non-fiction piece. Now I'm looking for 41.
    * At least 2 of the 165 newspapers I'm missing that include an original non-fiction piece. Now I'm looking for 173
    * At least 1 of the two Spanish editions I'm missing. I learnt about a 3rd Spanish book I'm missing.

    Since I completed my last Grails list, I'm creating a new one. I'm pretty positive it'll take a lot of time to get these but I'm not aiming to get these in the near future. It'll probably take me several years and that's why I'm considering these grails:

    * The Regulators - Lettered edition
    * Stories of Suspense
    * One copy of The Maine campus with a S. King piece on it.
    Wanted list:

    I never set out with any goals but this year has already been big (for me)
    I got The Stand Limited
    Also, I will have a Fire Starter Limited (signed by Michael W as well)
    I am probably not done. I would love to get a Regulators, Christine, Skeleton Crew or Eyes of the Dragon. And I am going to put The Talisman in there as well. I obviously won't get all of them this year. But Christine would be awesome to get. We
    shall see but this year has already been more than expected

    - (Have some courage to) Start a thread / share photos of my collection on this forum's Collection Thread.
    - Get 3-5 S/Ls of King's own work
    - 1-2 S/L anthologies
    - UK Bachman 1st paperbacks
    - 1-2 interesting proofs
    - Carrie UK 1st
    With my bank account needing a well earned rest, I thought I'd review my collecting goals here. All done. In fact, that set of bookshelves is already full and I'm planning on an extension. Starting to have intrusive thoughts about some 2017 goals...Maybe saving (saving saving) for a DT matching S/L set (if not 2017, at least by 2045).
