Keeping on theme with George’s post, here’s something you don’t see everyday. Forgive me for the artsy photos, but since I never dreamed I’d be taking pictures of my own copy of this book, I couldn’t resist going a little overboard.
Here’s the story, I happened to take a tired glance at eBay around 3 AM my time, just before closing my eyes and going to sleep, and saw this beauty freshly listed by a seller in Australia. I knew if I slept on it the book would be gone by the time I woke up, or somebody would have bid on it (it was an auction with BIN option), so I had to make a quick decision. While I was tempted to bid myself, I had no doubt in my mind that an auction would end up going over the BIN price. Or just as bad, an eager buyer would contact the seller and try to make a deal outside of eBay, and the seller might cancel any bids and end the listing. So I basically had two choices: I could buy it or I could always regret not buying it.
As you can see, I went with the first option, so I am delighted to share with you 1 of the 4 unnumbered deluxe copies of the Centipede Press Salem’s Lot.
The page block is truly amazing
I couldn’t help taking this picture!
Looking for:
- Philtrum Press Eyes of the Dragon RED #165
- Fine Viking Eyes of the Dragon proof
Oh man, that is amazing - and that it was in Australia is almost as amazing!
Wow, thats fantastic.
And no need to appologize for the Artsy photos. Wish I could take photos half as good!

Aaaaaaaand the big reveal!
While browsing the Collectible Classifieds back on Oct 26 I came across DoctorZaius' ad for "Salem's Lot, Signed/Limited #186". As that's "my" matching number I was pretty happy to see it and of course dropped Greg a note asking details and price. I figured it was the CD or PS edition; it never even OCCURED to me that it might be the Centipede edition ... until he came back with a price a whole lot higher than I was expecting! It actually didn't process when I first read it, I was thinking "He's outta his mind" until it hit me that it had to be the CP. Absolutely floored me, wasn't even on my radar for ever finding!
A few quick emails (mostly me saying "Holy Shit!") and the deal was done; couldn't be happier to receive this one in! A huge shout out to Greg for hooking me up!
Wow, that 1 of 4 SALEMS is a stunner. Thanks for sharing.

Ditto. Love the photos too. I don't think I would have gone to sleep after that!
Congratulations! Very nice. I like both the black one and the red one.
Simply marvelous.
A bit green with envy, but thrilled for you.
Wow! I keep looking at that last picture... either one is amazing, but both!!Congrats!!
Salem's Lot 1of4 - jaw dropping. You're totally rubbing it in with that photo of it and Lettered Misery in embrace
Alright, we'll call it a draw.
That’s straight up porn! Congratulations! Thanks for showing it to us. I feel like I owe you money just for looking.
