    I'll admit I really liked the frontispiece for Rose Madder. I don't have $2500, but that would be a great piece to own.

    I agree that it is very nice.

    Regarding the BAG OF BONES frontispiece: I have looked at my first HC edition of the book published by Scribner and do not see the illustration. Am I just missing it or was it published in another edition...paperback, perhaps?

    According to herbertwest this was only in foreign editions. The UK books do not have it either.

    Bag of Bones: Editions : Wilhelm Heyne (Germany), Albin Michel (France), H. Aschehoug & Co. (Norway), Egmont Wangel (Denmark)

    Wilhelm Heyne (Germany)..
    i would say that this is the 1st edition... title is SARA

    i think that this is the cover of the 1t german ed:






    MrRabbitTrick: i only knew that it was in the french edition, but just before creating the catalog Lilja had a contest and it was part of the question... lol ;-)
    you are british... do you know a british ed. which have the frontispiece?

    in fact, all the french editions have it (i mean.... at least the 1st ed and pockets... but if the pockets have it i guess that they all have it, would make sense, na?)

    Received today:

    Mark Geyer's print for The Green Mile. Signed in pencil by him.

    A really cool illustration (if not the best of the whole book) that's worth the money!

    Default Want to ask Mark Geyer a question?

    Hey folks,

    I've got a Q&A up with Mark Geyer (the illustrator for the limited edition Green Mile). He's also agreed to take fan questions, for a 2n'd Q&A next month.

    If you'd like to take a read and/or submit questions you'd like Mark to answer head on over.
    http://www.stephenkingcollector.com/MarkGeyer-QA1.html

    If I see any questions posted on this thread I'll include them as well.
    Thanks much,

    I'm a little surprised, so far no questions here or from my site.... No one's interested in asking Mark anything? Either about his work specifically or perhaps something general that would apply to other illustrators?

    Not that I'm trying to badger you guys Just surprised at the overall response.
    Thanks much,

    OK, Tomas, sorry for that

    Mark:

    1) What was your biggest challenge with regard to illustrating The Green Mile?

    2) Prior to doing the artwork for the book, a) had you read the story already? b) had you seen the movie starring Tom Hanks and had to contend with images already planted in your mind's eye?

    Thanks.

    no, u'd probably ask : can i get some of your DNA?


    - For Mark Geyer:
    Why did you only make one illustration for Rose Madder & Bag of bones?
    How did you decide what to illustrate about those books..
    and finally: Why the illustration of Bag of Bones isnt in the american ed?

    :-)

    Keep going the nice artwork!

    Yes. I got it a year or so ago from Mark. It is hanging in my dining room. It makes a nice set with the ROSE MADDER frontispiece. It is rare that I get something that my wife will allow upstairs.

    Absolutely stunning! Shows how good matting and framing can turn a piece of art into something that is museum quality.
