Your New Pride and Joy!

[Johnny007]

Ok guys, I recently had to pack up my King collection while getting a new hardwood floor. As I set the collection back up again I am examining some amazing stuff. I want to share a photo of what I believe to be the best copy of RAGE I’ve ever seen. Enjoy!

Beautiful copy! It is in the top 3 of those that I've ever seen! Alec has a similar copy and I do, as well. I don't know if Alec has his copy posted in his collections thread, but mine is posted somewhere on the 1st page of my collection thread. I am biased; but I wouldn't trade my copy for any other copy in existence. It is a pleasure to see your copy! Congratulations!

Best,
John

My first post to the Your New Pride and Joy thread. First up is A Life in the Cinema Artist Presentation edition. I've been looking for a copy of this for awhile and one finally popped up. On a side note, the seller of this hard to find edition shipped it in a bubble envelope. Miraculously, it survived the journey.




My second P&J, I was finally able to add a signed and inscribed Carrie to my collection. This was signed during King's Firestarter tour: LA stop.

I am very happy that this item stayed in the community! Congratulations on securing this hard-to-find edition. I bid when it was up for sale. I bid $1,800 hoping that I'd still have one more chance in the last seconds. I tried to put in a bid of $2,500 while the snipes began hitting. My try didn't make it, obviously. Beautiful book!!! I am glad that the book arrived safely, too! Enjoy!

Best,
John

Wow Johnny007! I’ve seen your Rage photo. Interesting. Not sure I’d trade mine either but how did you find that?

Thanks! Much appreciated.

Hi _PCC_,

It was either a gift to me or I found it on eBay. Anyway, it was neatly packaged but fell between drawers in my old flat. About 10 years ago, I embarked on a thorough SK inventory check before I moved to another flat. Lo and behold, I found this mint Rage that I forgot I owned. Time for another inventory soon -- hoping that everything matches what I have in Excel. BTW, I might be wrong, but I believe these copies of Rage would likely sell for $5-7K. Thanks again for your P&J!

Best,
John

I listed a copy as nice as this and it sold for $2200. I did start higher though John yet no buyers. If that helps

A signed copy could fetch over $6k

almost my new pride and joy.
For one minute, someone in Germany offered an S/L 11.22.63 for less than 100 euros
he absolutely wanted pay pal friends and then suddenly ended the conversation and the offer for the
11.22.63 and all other items... ..... unfortunately it was probably a scammer.. :-(

I am missing something. What would be $6,000.

What about a plain singed un-dated Carrie with a slight issue to the dust jacket. The "D" is missing
on the Double day on the spine.

[Br!an]

A fine signed Rage.

A fine signed Rage.

Could even fetch $7K


That;s what I've been offered for my NF+++

A fine signed Rage.

Thanks, yea, I can see that. Any answer to my Carrie question? and an un signed Rage in Fine condition.
Thanks

Sorry that you only got $2.2K for your copy, Kris. You still have pictures? No flaws? I ask because eBay sold a VG copy for $3K in February and Antoni recently sold a US set in VG condition on FB for $4.5K. So essentially another $3K Rage in VG condition. I stand by my $5-7K estimate for a near mint copy -- which is what _PCC_ has according to his pictures.

Wow, are you talking unsigned?

No need to be sorry. I believe that’s what it was worth. It’s a near fine + copy. I’m pretty diverse in values as it’s literally what I live and breath now daily. There is no one out there that would pay 5-7k for a fine one I do not believe. I listed a set not long ago that were all fine. The nicest I had ever seen. It fetched $6k at the end of the day. The set that was sold by Antoni was not as nice as you know. Long Walk and Roadwork have great value now too. Running man… still running behind.. no pun intended. You can always ask what you want for a book but finding a buyer that will pay it as you know is another beast entirely. My personal copy is flawless. I never seen better and I suspect I would get $3k ish for it… maybe a bit more. If anyone wants to pay me over 5k though? Yep I’m in! I won’t lie. Haha

Sweet !

Can't remember the last time I posted a new P & J, but picked this up yesterday; premilinary drawing for FDNS "Big Driver" by Jill Bauman.

[Lot guy]

Congrats George!! I love FDNS, an amazing piece of art for your collection!!

[Lurker]

Finally (and probably waayyy to late) decided to start tracking down the Bachmans.
So after cough cough years of collecting I picked this one up. Front cover has some wear, hard to tell thro the plastic but really is bright red. Doesn't look read - spine is not cracked, book is tight and back cover has no issues. So, I'm happy. On to the next cheapest one!

Don't feel bad. I put off collecting them too when they could be had much, much cheaper. So far I've found a NF UK Roadwork. It's pretty lonely. Haha.

I am on the same train. I started late but I have 2 so far U.S Rage and U.S Running Man. Hope to get the two also.

I’m missing a near perfect Roadwork
to go with these 3 VF’s
