King Books/Items Wanted

[goheat]

Sigh, still looking to trade for a signed FK.

I have a signed, flatsigned 1st/1st of Cell (isn't this somewhat rare?) and will also throw in a Pet Semetery Proof (2nd State) in Fine+ condition, and a Dreamcatcher or Nightmares and Dreamscapes proof, also in great condition.

Bumpity-bump. Still looking!

I'd like to find a F/NF 1st/1st copy of Thinner and/or The Bachman Books. Please PM me your price.

Thanks!

FYI Both the HARD & SOFT covers of The Bachman Books were released simultaneously. So they are both the true 1st Edition.

Spoiler:

Now this fact I can NOT prove...But I feel that the Soft cover may have been released sooner in the stores because of the lower price & It was the only choice in the store also there is a ad in the back of the book to order the Hardcover.

that was my thought too! but i am absolutely no expert!

Yes, I bought both the hard and soft cover editions at the same time when they came out. They both went on sale simultaneously.

If that is the case the HIGH END bookstores would have ordered both hard and soft...or just the HARD cover in Beverly Hills.

Spoiler:

As I was told at a HIGH END bookstore in London when I was looking for Movie Tie-in paperbacks in 1977. "NOBODY READS THOSE THINGS"

[jhanic]

I got mine at the now-defunct Waldenbooks.

It's interesting how the proof had the Plume imprint and not NAL. So the proof is more for the trade paperback.

I never noticed that!

But it has no HARDCOVER ad in the back.

[Br!an]

You're all killing me here.

The Bachman Books is one of the firsts I still need.

Nice copies Bruce! I'm sure John's are nice too since he bought them on the release date.

I think I might know where to buy the paperback in nice condition. I suppose I better just do it.

You might be better off just selling them and buying the book. Not everyone want to trade, but everyone wants money.

Rick listed one a little while ago. I don't know if he sold it yet.

And I never noticed that! Just checked now and you're right.

Yes, you should just do it Brian. I had the trade paperback for the longest time, and could never find the hardcover. Wasn't looking too hard though. Eventually got one, and if you want a complete collection of 1st trade editions, it's definitely one you should have in your collection. Good luck!

I do indeed (plus receipt and newspaper from after the signing).

And Br!an...thanks for that postage tip you PMed me!

I too would like a replacement 1st Edition The Bachman Books, but they are rare and pricey. Tons of later printings and BCEs on ebay, but only a couple of the real deal and seeing as I am currently unemployed they are totally out of my price range! My copy has an embossed "from the library of" on the first page. That was years before I realized how much that devalued the book! I have all of the other firsts editions, but would like to replace this one.

After this the only firsts that I don't have but would like are the individual Bachman paperbacks. I have The Running Man but need the other three! These are also pricey at least to me now and the only way I'll get them is to stumble upon them in a yard sale most likely.

Wow... Foster $700? I sure hope you get it!!!

[TrueNorth]

I know crazy or plain crazy...pick one.
Shortly after I had one offered to me for $800. I think $700 is already too much, but you know when it itches you have to scratch,

[Jimimck]

thought I had a MM link to post for sale but I didn't read the auction properly and it was Finders Keepers.
