Very nice! We also want pics once it's framed!

Thanks. Will frame it after Halloween!

I just received my Limited Edition of Secretary of Dreams II. It looks just like the first, but it seems to be a little thinner. But browsing through the pages it looks excellent just like the first, it's another fine production.

The funny thing is I never got sent an email saying it was shipping so it was a complete surprise. lol

wow, I've received 2 signed/limiteds by King in one week, now. that's the first time that's happened in 2 years probably.

I searched a long time for this item-many a year-and got it a week ago.

Congratulations, Geoff!

Mike, I don't get what is it, but congratulations!

The Fall 1973 Marshroots has King's first publication of "It Grows on You". It's very, very scarce. This is the only copy I've ever seen.

Congratulations, Mike!

Congratulations, Mike! I think that MARSHROOTS and the four issues of UBRIS are the hardest to find of all of the things King published while in college.

[Pasiuk57]

I have three of the Ubris but looking for number 4!!!

Which one are you missing? In my experience the Spring, 1969 issue with the first appearance of "Night Surf" is the scarcest of the four issues.

I only have the 2 1968 issues. I'm still looking for the 2 1969 ones.

I have none of them but one can always dream.

I know its only a UK BCE but im very proud to own a signed 'Delores Claiborne'

[biomieg]

Nice, Tom. Is it 'a' BCA or the 'world first' BCA?

Nice, Tom. Is it 'a' BCA or the 'world first' BCA?

Sorry i was wrong its a BCA printed in 1992. What do you mean by 'world first'?

[biomieg]

As far as I know the world's first edition of DOLORES CLAIBORNE was published by BCA (so before the H&S edition). I don't know if there were subsequent BCA printings and if so, how these can be distinguished from the first BCA printing. Alan probably knows this.

I received this LOVELY UK 1st from Betts yesterday. The condition is Fine/Fine and had I pass on this, I'm sure I would not see one for sale in a better condition. Exceptionally beautiful condition, IMO. Thank you, David!.

[Tito_Villa]

Thanks for the info Biomieg! And wow that looks a great copy of the shining!

[biomieg]

Lovely book, Juliana. It looks amazing! I have two copies but neither comes even close to this one.

Dozens of printings. The copyright page tells you which printing.

[biomieg]

Thanks, I didn't know that.

The first BCA printing of DOLORES CLAIBORNE has the code CN 6975 on the copyright page and no mention of later printings. According to Barry Levin there are only about 2000 such copies.

That CN number is meaningless. It is only the Catalogue Number (CN) and appears on every copy whatever the printing.

The BCA "1st Printings" have no other printing details noted. i.e.

The 2nd printing says "2nd impression"
The 3rd printing says "3rd impression"
The 42 printing says " 42 impression"

Get the idea? All have the number CN6975. It's like an ISBN number.

Thanks for the info. I made an assumption and, as is often the case, it was wrong. Thanks for the correction.
