Yes, I was very glad to get 1st printings! The paperback is on its way.
I got this little lettered book from Betts today. The EXTREMELY RARE Ron Howard Twilight Zone autograph card, the EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE Angelina Jolie autograph cards for TOMB RAIDER and TOMB RAIDER THE CRADLE OF LIFE, and the INCREDIBLY EXPENSIVE Emilia Clarke autograph cards from Game of Thrones Seasons One and Two are shown ONLY for purposes of scale.
I've got to get a better camera. I paid $1700 for this Minolta 15 or 20 years ago, and I always have a glare problem, particularly on a book with a dark mat finish like this one. The volume is stunning, but doesn't come out at all decently in the pictures.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.
And the people bowed and prayed, to the cell phone god they made...
Congrats on the book!

Love the lettered Gwendy’s, Steve. Congratulations.
Congrats on the lettered Gwendy's - it really is one of the best Cemetery Dance productions I've ever seen. The traycase is awesome and I really like the decision to go with stamped/textured boards instead of a dustjacket. Good get!!
That lettered does look nice! Looks like steel. Congrats...
Thanks all! I loved the story and HAD to have the lettered. I still need the proofs. I lost an E-Bay CD auction the other day, almost had one of them! But there's still hope.

Here is the brand new paperback of PET SEMATARY. I am going to bury it out back and see what comes up.
Also my 1st edition of GROUCHO AND ME, which I bought a long time ago really cheap:

Very nice Gwendy's. I'm still trying to find a spot to put mine. Those AGOT cards are pretty awesome too!
Wanted: Human skin edition of The Book of the Dead. Will accept PC copy.
Interesting signed cards. I know little about these things. Do they hold their value? I have seen the Twin Peaks Cards and have been surprised at the prices for some of them. I would like to collect some of them but do not wish to be ripped off.
My advice - do NOT start collecting non-sports trading cards unless you are prepared to spend a lot of money. I am a completist, and it is now virtually impossible to complete new card sets because of ridiculous parallel sets and 1/1 cards, etc. I have thousands of cards, and I still like them, but I quit about three or four years ago. Some cards I paid 20 bucks for or pulled out of packs are now worth $500 and up, and some I paid hundreds of dollars for are worth one tenth of what I paid for them. A couple, like the Ryan Reynolds auto from X-Men, and the Meghan Markle from Fringe, which were going for a couple of bucks, have shot way up in value, though.
Just like book collecting, the bottom line is collect what you LIKE, and don't worry about the monetary value of the items. And if you can show me one person who follows that rule, I have a bridge to sell you.

Looks great. 24 versions of one book. That deserves a wow. Congrats and I hope you find the rest of the ones you are missing.
Congrats, Steve!

congrats, that's a great proof. Always nice to see a book going from one fantastic collection to another one.
Thanks guys!
My car's engine was idling while I sat around idly wondering about my idol, Eric Idle, with a rerun of American Idol on the TV, when this book arrived in my mailbox. Both are signed - ideally by Eric Idle no less!

Idle thoughts are the devil's playground.
It's always cool when authors sign the books they write. Vs. some ransom person.

You must be feeling unbr-Idle-d joy! Congratulations!
