It was exclusive to Anerida books so I’m guessing that UK Bookworm is reselling a copy at a premium to recoup their expenses and make a few bucks.
That was my initial concern as well that Bookworm was producing another signed variant. In speaking with Jeff Whiley regarding the matter, he advised me that it is exactly the same book. So I'd say you're spot on, Joe. Jeff also told me that these copies are just trade editions with a number added. Tipped in I'm assuming. I preordered my copy from Anderida for £45. I might not have ordered one if I'd know this information before hand. But knowing myself, probably would have really bugged me not to have it. Reckon we'll see what it looks like when it arrives.
Also the slipcase design is eerily similar to the one that Simon sent to Jeff. Although I think the font on Simon's design is a bit thicker.
IMO, I'll argue that CD is the only press producing an actual S/L of this title.

I agree. I don't like the fact that a lot of UK books are being called "limited" when they are just first printings with a tipped in numbered signature page. That is not a limited edition book in my eyes.That was my initial concern as well that Bookworm was producing another signed variant.

Received my copy of the UK SW slipcased edition this afternoon. It is indeed a 1st printing copy of the UK trade hardback with an added limitation page, it looks like it's bound in rather than tipped in but I'm not sure about that. I do know that the Anderida version was officially approved by Gollancz. The slipcase does look like the one that was posted previously in this thread, but it's not the same (again the Anderida slipcases were approved by Gollancz who provided the 'artwork'/font, they were manufactured by a company in London).
If this can edition officially counts as a limited....that's a matter of opinion. This UK version is similar to the 'limited' Goldsboro version of The Fireman but in no way a real limited like Cemetery Dance's upcoming signed/limited.
Nevertheless a nice addition to your collection if you ordered one. My copy even has a small umbrella doodle. Curious if anyone else's copy has a doodle.

Just wondering what you guys thought of Strange Weather as a book.
I really liked the first two, the second two were a bit off.

For those who missed out on the slipcased UK edition of Strange Weather, there are a few remaining copies offered on the site of Anderida books. Unfortunately the price has gone up...

Hey Everyone.
Need some opinions... what is the better edition of Nos4a2 the IDW Limited or the Sub Press Limited?
Thank you.
The Sub Press edition. I've examined both, own the Sub Press, and am very pleased with that purchase/choice.
I agree. I have both, and the Sub Press is nicer.The Sub Press edition. I've examined both, own the Sub Press, and am very pleased with that purchase/choice.

Agree as well, sub press is nicer. Grab one with the slipcase if you can.
I also agree that the Sub edition is nicer, but I don’t want to sell the IDW edition short. It is a top quality product with great art and a texture to the DJ that reminds me of old wallpaper! (In a very cool “grandma’s” way)
If you can only get one, go for the Sub. Just keep in mind that they look great together as well.
"Thanks, but no, it isn't a cowboy hat. It's a fedora. And yes, Indianna Jones is still socially relevant."
Agreed, Chris. Both are great editions and they do look great together.

Thank you all.
Based on what I have read here I decided to pick up both copies.
Does anyone know what this curious looking hardcover is? Just a reissue?

*EDIT* to add: Oh yeah- just need to check Marco's excellent bibliography (Thanks, Marco!), and it's all there! Anyone have this? Is it...cool?

Thanks! It’s a nice hardcover. A bit smaller in size than a regular hardcover edition but it has a nice new introduction. It’s one in a series of anniversary editions from Gollancz.

Much thanks for the info! One thing: Does it have a dust jacket, or printed boards?Thanks! It’s a nice hardcover. A bit smaller in size than a regular hardcover edition but it has a nice new introduction. It’s one in a series of anniversary editions from Gollancz.
Yep. No DJ, printed boards. Slipcase is aftermarket custom.

I recently received my UK Strange Weather S/L by Joe Hill numbered out of 100, but mine has a lightning bolt where the number should be unlike others I seen for sale. Is this a "PC" version? Has anyone seen one like this one and/or know how many were produced? Here's a pic of the limitation page:
