King Books/Items Wanted

[Randall Flagg]

My Night Shift copies are in pretty good nick. Pity the photo is rubbish. Maybe I should take one with the UK Proof alongside.

You are teasing

[shibus]

Me too! I have a picture of the one Carlos has, but I'm always interested!

John

UK?

[Mr. Rabbit Trick]

This picture is not much better than the other one, but you get the idea.

[shnnrc01]

real nice RT!

UK?

Yes, the NEL edition of THE STAND. Like the picture Mr. Rabbit Trick is currently showing of NIGHT SHIFT, I've got a similar copy of THE STAND. Plain white wrappers with trade edition of dj adhered to the book in "french wraps" style. I've never been sure if these are properly called "ARCs" or "proofs." Since I have never seen a true proof of either title these may indeed be the proofs. I bought mine from a seller who called it an ARC though.

HORNS - UK ARC

Too much room in the new bookcase, I guess.

Anyone have any thoughts on the PS publishing book ONE FOR THE ROAD? Seems a little pricey

Agreed. At that price, i almost bought it assuming that it was signed by KING..Im glad that my usual impulsive buying ego was under control and learned differently.

[jhanic]

I also seriously considered ordering a copy, then discovered it was not signed by King. I'll get one off eBay someday.

I bought one of the unsigned hardcover editions. Debated the signed until saw the price and not signed by King.

I committed to a signed copy in November 2008. At that time Pete Crowther stated unequivocally that the ONLY way to get a copy was to take out a five year subscription to Postscripts. They would NOT be sold separately.

I took the bait and paid $698 for a five year subscription to the signed edition of Postscripts. I am extremely disappointed (and, to be honest, pissed off) to learn that now you can buy a copy separately.

I confronted Pete about this and, to his credit, he offered to reimburse me for the unused portion of my subscription but I have decided to honor my commitment. I just wish that these publishers would be true to their word.

Heck, I'm still pissed at Donald Grant for publishing a second (and third) edition of THE GUNSLINGER when they promised unequivocally that the first printing of 10K copies was all there would EVER be. Does no one have any honor any more?

[Randall Flagg]

Does no one have any honor any more?

Not when they need to eat. (I won't use a smiley as this isn't funny given the current economic environment).

Grant's decision to print second and third editions of THE GUNSLINGER wasn't predicated on putting food on the table. It was simply a matter of going back on their word to make a few more bucks. Dishonorable.

Bob, I agree, I got suckered on the "One for the Road" also. At least the
Postscripts books have lots of good stories!

My comment was meant to be analogous to earning a living, surviving, maintaining ones own habitat, and thus putting food on the table-IE-eating.
I suppose greed would mean they are at the peak of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs .

I looked through One for the Road in the dealer's room at World Horror. It's a beautiful book, but a little pricey for an illustrated short story, I thought.

I got sucked in by PS also. Pete did work with me once I voiced my displeasure about them allowing it to be purchased without a five year subscription.

Anyone have decent (extra) copies of the pull-out booklets of The Monkey and The Raft that came with Gallery magazine? The booklets will suffice, they don't need to be attached to the magazine.

There are a couple of copies on ABE, but I'd rather ask my forum friends first.

I have The Monkey - inscribed "For Barry and Dara Hoffman- with best wishes- Stephen King 9/20/86". Unfortunately, I probably overpaid for it & would need to at least get back what I paid. (Barry Hoffman is Gauntlett Press). PM me if you're interested.

I Know, Right?..... I saw the price and "signed edtion" and logically assumed that it was signed by sai KING.... alas No!

[herbertwest]

Is the book out now?
