I recently had the opportunity to buy more Bulgarian Dark Tower paperbacks. They are not cheap at all, but I couldn't resist. They are pretty scarce as far as I know.
Really happy with these! 8)

Nice adds! Congrats!
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
Around 9 months ago I met a local Melbourne bookseller who had 2 books inscribed by SK (It’s very rare to have Australian dealers with flat-signed SK books, in my brief experience): A US Cujo (3rd, with some water damage to the end papers) and a US Firestarter (4th). The bookseller wanted silly money for them initially, given they’re not 1sts ($1,200 USD for both!). Just out of interest I took photos of the books to Tomas’ Collector site for opinion on signatures and worth (I wasn’t a member here at DT yet), and Mr Rabbit Trick helped out a lot with verification and value. Anyway, I left the books at the time and the seller came back twice with lower offers, which I declined. Anyway, last week I decided to contact him out of the blue - he still had the books and needed some quick cash apparently, so I offered him $250 US for both of them, and now they’re mine. They’re not 1sts, but I’ve wanted a (relatively) early King signature in my collection.
Unfortunately, however, my name is not Nancy...
How do we know your name isn't Nancy? I haven't seen proof that states otherwise

That sounds like a great deal to me! Congrats!! Very nice looking signatures.

Congratulations, Ari! The Satyricon II Convention program with the first publication of writing from Pet Sematary (it preceded the publication of the book by several months) has gotten really hard to find. I used to buy them for $10 to $20 back in the 1990's but those days are long gone. Now they go for a lot more if you can find one.
Of course you know that the copy of Carrie in the picture has the more common dust jacket with the book title vertical on the spine. There is a rare state with the title horizontal.
Congrats Ari. And I've been looking for that Carrie DJ with the horizontal title for a long time! All you see out there is the one you have.
According to Peter Schneider none were supposed to have been released by the publisher. They recognized early on that it didn't look right when viewed upright on a shelf. The book was too thin and all of the letters couldn't be seen so you couldn't read the title easily. Peter sent me one that he still had and I doubted I would ever see another. But later I did happen to see one on eBay and I recognized it as one with the withdrawn dj. Just a bit of luck on my part. So, despite what Peter said, it seems likely that some made it out and were sold.
Good information. Well, I'm still lookin'
