Fantastic! I've resisted the urge to buy King proofs thus far. I'm going to be going through your collection from the start. I plan on being very jealous and might even cry a bit.

Loving the UTD shelf

Required reading at Monsters University:

Boxed and numbered edition, indicates a lettered edition was published, but this is not true according to Sub Press.

I went on a tear for a while and obtained 12-15 proofs, but they are tough. John, has the market cornered!!! LOL LOL

Nice new additions ur2ndbiggestfan!!!!!!!

Bought this from E-bay after seeing Jerome's post. Thanks for the link Jerome!

[becca69]

That is a cool cover. Link?

[Dan]

I like that cover. What printing is it? I assume they didn't start at 1, or did they?

I wouldn't have picked RF as a Despicable Me fan....

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

The E-bay auction for the book was the link I was referring to. The book's numberline does start with a 1, but there is no printing date or price that I can find. I am a DESPICABLE ME fan, I'm not sure about Jerome. The Minions can be found at Walmart and Toys R Us.

I saw the movie today. I really liked it.

Thanks to James in New Zealand (thanks James!) I once again have the Australian edition of King's newest book. Similar to the UK version, but no price and PRINTED IN AUSTRALIA:

[Merlin1958]

Just curious, but what makes it a New Zealand copy? I thought they were just UK export editions. Anyway, Congrats!!!







P.S. Not trying to be adversarial or anything.

[Jimimck]

These are actually printed in Australia, with that stated on the CP. As opposed to export copies that (I believe) are still printed in the UK.

NZ often gets these Australian printed editions released here in lieu of either a true US or UK first edition. We hardly ever get hardback editions released here either which sucks.

Thanks for the info. Good to know. I recall that when I was amassing my UK collection I had to be on watch for the "Export" editions and quite a few came from Australia. Good info, James. Many thanks!!!

Yeah, you're right James, it sucks (not having ready access to HC's here) and I use the Australian "1st editions" as reading copies - I have my Aussie Joyland PB upstairs all ready to go.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Yup, there's always the US paperback, the UK paperback, the UK export edition paperback, the Australian paperback, etc. I try to get at least one of each. The hardest state to obtain for me is the export edition, many of which I still need and have no idea where or how to find them.

Got the BLACK HOUSE promo card from Shannon today. Neat little item:

I've stared at the photo for quite a while. I see no evidence of anything related to Stephen King. I'm will continue to look until I find it.

Awesome lady... thanks for the pic, but where is the relation to SK
