Intriguing Stephen King/King Related/Dark Tower Auctions-Sales

[stroppygoblin]

Interesting. Can you say how it compares to George Beahm’s excellent book on King collectibles?

I wouldn't like to say too much regarding an as yet unpublished novel without permission from Brian, but I think its OK for me to say that the two are very different. Whilst GB's is more of a catalogue, the new book is more of a history.

Thanks. I am looking forward to seeing CD’s book when it is published.

Why no publisher has done a REAL nice presentation ALL on Kings collectables. I think it would be amazing... Like from Firestarter on and even the obscure like Duddits. I would buy that

This may interest some collectors : the current HEAVY METAL magazine includes "the little green god of agony" comic book that was released in 2012, exclusively on the Stephen King website !

audio cassette from 1984 for The Mist:

RARE STEPHEN KING'S THE MIST Audiobook Cassette - ZBS 1984 Kunstkopf Bunaural




I don't know what this is actually, audiobook or broadcast, but seemed intriguing enough to post here.

Starting price: US $49.99, no bids yet.

It's the *audio theater dramatization of The Mist. Several actors read thier lines. A very cool production. ZBS professionally created a record and cassette to be used for an October radio broadcast. Several syndicates participated.

I have the ZBS record and cassette. Not picking on the sellers price, but I believe $20 for the cassette is more reasonable. The record, double that.

Sent me pictures a few listings ago, has a slightly damaged upper spine end, not horrible horrible, but its there.
I keep thinking it would be the first think I'd see when I glanced at it.
Some people don't care about that, if that's the case... not a bad price.

No provenance, and I've never seen an Authors Copy, Artist proof etc. of this book. It's either a super rare find, or somewhere in time someone wrote AP in the limitation line. Caveat Emptor.

They have added in the item description that it is probably a blank copy that some wrote AP on the limitation line.

[Garrell]

It was Adrian Peterson's copy

I remember years ago, Barry R Levin had a copy in his store described as a forged lettered edition:

The Stand: The Complete and Uncut Edition
New York: Doubleday, 1990. First edition thus, FORGED LETTERED STATE. Signed by King and Bernie Wrightson, the book's illustrator. This book was originally limited to 52 LETTERED copies and 1,250 NUMBERED copies. With about 20 out-of-series (unlettered and unnumbered) copies produced to provide back-up in case of damage to in-series copies. This copy was one of the rare (20 or less) out-of-series back-up copies to which someone added the letters "AP" to the limitation page, in an attempt to make this copy look like one of the 52 "LETTERED" copies. The forger did not know that the lettered copies had been marked "A" to "Z" and "AA" to "ZZ". No "AP" copy was ever produced. What we have here is an authentic limited edition, with authentic autographs, but which is a FORGED "LETTERED" state (or an authentic but altered rare out-of-series copy). Bound in full leather, all edges gilt, and housed in a red cloth-lined wooden box with lid. The plate on the lid is in the "black with brass lettering" state. Fine in original glassine dust jacket and fine publisher's box.
$3,000.00

I always wondered why it was assumed to be a forged state rather than an Artist Proof, but the description sounds very similar so I wonder if it is the same copy? Either way there is precedent for an AP copy.

[herbertwest]

I am confused.
Why "AP" not part of the 52 copies?
AA, AB, AC, AD, AE, AF.... AP... to AZ
and ZA, ZB... to ZZ, no ?

[jhanic]

It's AA, BB, CC to ZZ.

[herbertwest]

Doesnt that make only 26 copies?

So I am guessing that there is :
A, and AA
B, and BB
etc ?
