Love those pictures!
Amazing stuff for sure, Bob! As far as The Stand; I didn't think new members could post pics so soon Good looking book all the same though.
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
I am so jealous. One of my goals is to own a lettered edition of the stand. (: it's quite lovely
Congratulations -- the STAND S/L is my Holy Grail (and I'd be just fine w/ the numbered, btw, in case the Book Gods are listening), so certainly understand how pleased you must be to have your copy.
Congratulations on acquiring the Lettered Stand! While I don't know what else you have in your collection, that is a great centerpiece of any collection or a stunning focal point to start a collection. Plus, it is in beautiful condition. Very happy for you.
Absolutely amazing! Congrats on the Lettered The Stand.
Thanks everyone, it was acquired from a fellow collector. I'm happy to obtain it an I hope to be able to keep it for a long time. If I find more good stuff I will post on this thread.
Lettered Stand - hell yes. Congrats man.
Just received two big ones on my want list.
EOTD S/L
Green Mile S/L
Ah very nice indeed!
Congratulations patzgcrux, on the lettered The Stand. Awesome book. I wondered who would end up with that one. Glad it was someone here.
Congratulations Antoni, on the EOTD and Green Mile S/L. Two S/Ls at the top end of my favourites.
Cheers guys, and congrats on yours Kris. It is an incredible edition, and I haven't had the chance to properly look at it yet. This weekend I've blocked out half of Saturday for a S/L immersion.
It is so interesting, to me anyway, that the Subterranean Press S/L of The Green Mile which was so reviled both before and after publication because of cost, perceived poor artwork and overall quality is now almost universally praised and desired by collectors. Personally I've always liked all three states (trade, numbered and lettered).
Agreed. Beautiful design. Love the spines!
This is probably the best item I have in terms of rarity and uniqueness. I was lucky enough to get this recently from a serious collector. The 40th. Anniversary lettered edition of Carrie published in the UK by PS Publishing. I have copy "Z".
Here is a link that explains the item in better depth:

What makes this unique is the limited, One off original artwork on each of the lettered copies. I have copy "Z" and it came with a art book that illustrated the rest of the art works and of course in the envelope marked "Z" the artwork that came with it.
