"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
No doubt! You'd be very well off even after commissions! I got the auction notice via email as I'm sure tons of others did.Originally Posted by stroppygoblin

You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
Hyraxia Book's next Stephen King catalogue is here...
I have to compliment Simon on these catalogs. The time it must have taken to photograph and catalog everything, and then the layout and design is very good. Nice work Simon.
I agree. The detail and work he has put into them is just AMAZING. The prices however... will be tough to get. Again, I wish him the best but even though there are books there I would love to have... I will not even bother to make an offer cause they are just to high to start.

I agree the prices for the top end items (Firestarter S/L's and lettered, etc) are at the very top end, but some of the other 'lesser' items are quite reasonable, especially in the UK as shipping is free. I bought the Gwendys variant, with coin and slipcase @£75 I thought was a good deal. the book on its own has been selling near that price.

Yeah some are not bad. Simon posted on a Facebook thread in response to many saying the prices were too high that his customers will pay the prices he is asking as they like dealing with him as a company. Hey we have all overpaid (in our own eyes maybe) for stuff. I just told a friend who is looking for a Lettered Firestarter Simon's number. He is calling today to make an offer which i think is reasonable. I wish them both luck.

It appears as if both the Lettered Firestarter and the Lettered Green Mile are both sold.
Proves that there is a large collecting world out there fellas.

It’s funny how the IT market goes. A month ago David sells a lettered IT for over 7K, probably 7.5, but this one on eBay didn’t sell for 6K last night and the price has dropped again to 5600. There was definitely a palpable peak leading up to and as the movie came out. I wonder when the next peak will come

STEPHEN KING SIGNED BOOK TITLED "SLEEPING BEAUTIES" 1ST ED "DRAWING"EXTRA RARE!!
I'm confused by this one. First he states it was signed at the event 1 of the 400 out of 1100 participants. Then he goes to say he had "him" sign it at the hotel and a moth was drawn in.... So was it signed at the event or at a hotel and who drew the moth?
And for the love of god turn off caps lock!

Someone should ask the seller about that.
Here is his reply.
"Yes this is a first edition book and I got each of them signed in Person at a hotel that they stayed at...The book came from the event i went to but I was not one of the lucky ones to get a signed copy so I made it happen myself!...lol...Been getting in person signatures for over 20 years!...thanx for looking...you will love this book...guaranteed...I took a picture of Owen signing the book that goes with it and a picture of stephen signing from bag of bones tour in Seattle...Jeff"

Sounds believable. If he had clear pics, it would probably be sold.
This could be flipped for a modest profit, or kept for a cheap copy.
