ok, I've acquired an item I had never seen before and as far as I know is NOT owned by anyone else here...I have acquired a Sleeping Beauties manuscript....it is two volumes (softcover), each bound. There are no corrections inside, it is typeset but slightly different than finished product.
I know people put WAY different values on proofs and manuscripts...for some they have little if any worth, for others like gold....but how do you price an item like this? Like I said, never seen one before (these are NOT CD productions, but Scribner) and both volumes are as new...
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
I'm still buying. I'm just moving some items. I just won a OUTSIDERS US proof about a week ago.

those are really nice. I'd be very interested!!

I am sorting and listing my collection of Stephen King materials. Just discovered that my copy of the Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction December 1990 special Stephen King edition is actually signed on the back cover. What is the range of values for this item, please? There is some minor spotting on the back cover. Thanks.
So with a Lettered Misery Selling at 12K I am now curious what an entire Suntup set would sell for.
EoTD Portfolio and lettered Misery matched letter and throw in the matched Dragon Rebounds as well.
Also would be curious to get your opinion on if it would be better to sell as sets or as individual books....
I'm not looking to sell yet but that number today makes it awfully enticing.
I'd say your average collector (me, my neighbor, etc.) probably isn't able to drop $10K on a book at any given time, never mind a higher price for a group of books. High end collectors can (probably) do that without issue. So, I would say it may depend on who your target audience is. If it's the average guy, then dropping them out there one at a time on Betts, Heritage, or even eBay may increase your chance of a sale; set your minimum bid and let it go from there. If your target audience is high end, then group them with an appropriate starting bid; the completist will want what you are selling and bid appropriately. There's also the chance that a buyer is only interested in the actual SK-signed Lettered and not in the EOTD rebound or portfolio; in that case, selling as a group may hinder a high end bid, while breaking up the set may allow for an easier sale.Also would be curious to get your opinion on if it would be better to sell as sets or as individual books....

I don't think there's an easy answer for the question, but I personally would think that the target audience is high end and the right person would be interested in matching all the letters if possible.
WANT LIST: Any SK #186; Dark Man Unbound 1st Proof; FDNS Unbound 1st Proof; FDNS Black Tape Spine Proof; FDNS Unbound Color Proof
I think selling as a set will only help if they are matching letters. With an unmatched set, you're putting off people who already have some of the volumes, and people who can only afford individual volumes. But if they match, there are buyers who would pay to replace an complete unmatched set with a matched set.

Because of the two publishing houses, Paul has created an interesting conundrum for the Collector. Suntup Press and Dragon Rebound books are not really a matching set, having a Lettered DR has no direct link to getting a Lettered SP and vice versa.
What makes it interesting was Paul's decision to allow owners of lettered DR EOTD books to match their SP EOTD Portfolios - this then created a collecting 'link' between the two sets. Having the EOTD Portfolio has now become a means to an end, and it is owning the Lettered Misery that is now the starting block for future SP Lettered's.
There are still a great many collectors out there that are desperate to get hold of the DR lettered copy of IT and would probably buy the full set of DR matching books to get it.
If I were selling (and I'm NOT) I would sell the Lettered Misery stand alone and the DR books as a set. I would include the EOTD Portfolio with the DR books set.
"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
Ahhh, the ‘link,’ such a beautiful thing
I think the full matching lettered set from rebound EOTD through lettered Misery would sell for 20K+ at the moment. There may not be a lot of collectors out there that could afford it, but I bet there are at least 5 that could and would buy it if the opportunity arose, especially since the chance that 5 full sets ever actually come to market is slim to nil
Looking for:
- Philtrum Press Eyes of the Dragon RED #165
- Fine Viking Eyes of the Dragon proof
Don't forget that the Eyes of the Dragon proof should also come with stills of the art work (more important now after the publishing of the portfolio.)
Thanks for the replies!
I have a number for Misery but have no idea what the number for EoTD -> IT + Portfolio would be. Only saw the one EoTD sell on market last year and one FS. Both were publishers copies and I have yet to see an IT or Lettered Portfolio hit the market.
What's the going rate for the GBB Nocturnal alternative covers wrapped around a 1/1 signed by Chizmar, with CD slipcase and the coin? Thanks!
