Happy to announce I just bought the last copy of IMC 13 so that the HF can now have the full donation!
"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
I'm looking for Shining S/L copies. My current offer of $575 builds in a decent profit over cost for you.
As for those of you who got Shining Gift editions from me at Betts....I ordered 13 copies from SubPress and got 4 (count em) sketch books. One I kept for myself, two I "donated" to other members and 1 was sold on request. All others I got were just the plain jane book...don't get me wrong, I think the book itself is SWEET!.
In fact, I just bought a Vincent Chong remarqued copy...it's AWESOME
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
Some new stuff listed at Bett's
I Picked up:
DAW-27 Wind Through the Keyhole 1st edition flatsigned by Stephen King - book has bumped corner; ***King did NOT do a formal signing for this book; mu guess is there are less than 50 signed copies in existence
andAW-9 Doctor Sleep 1st trade edition flatsigned by Stephen King in Doctor Sleep slipcase from Cemetery Dance (value $35); Fine/Fine
Congrats! That was a great price on Doctor Sleep.
HUGE NEW LIST OF BOOKS POSTED AT BETTS
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
