I mentioned this in another thread but I see that this guy has relisted the poster. He admits now that it is not original but a reproduction and the price has dropped by $60. He kept the same picture for the listing but the poster's size has changed from 24X41 to 11X17, which when I received the package I did think it way too small to hold the poster but I didn't open it because I was going to return it anyway. The box he mailed it to me was rotting and falling apart. I couldn't even ship it back to him without first putting his box into another box. He gave me a partial refund and was a bit dickish about it but I thought it was fair because I did waste his time. Now I know more about the situation, I don't think he was fair about it at all and I will certainly never buy from him again.Originally Posted by Randall Flagg

Riverdriver's Cookbook, signed by Stephen King
I'll let the experts decide if it is real, but seems a strange thing to fake a sig on...then again it is only $7...who sells a SK sig for $7?
It sold. Felt pen signatures are very tough, but I would say the signature is legit (my opinion and $7 gets you a Starbucks coffee).
I think it looks OK too but.......why?It sold. Felt pen signatures are very tough, but I would say the signature is legit (my opinion and $7 gets you a Starbucks coffee).

I guess my question wasn't the price but more to the point of why someone would get him to sign that particular item when other choices were likely available. IMO, even a beat up paperback copy of Lisey's Story would have been a better choice.For $7, why not?I think it looks OK too but.......why?It sold.

I found this info on the cookbook,
96 pages, recipes supplied by area residents including one from Stephen King for "lunchtime gloop," a bit of Paul Bunyan lore, tree facts, color illustrated card cover with plastic comb binding. is.*Bookseller Inventory # 070905012

It certainly could be. Stu Tinker had them in stock for years at Betts Bookstore. I think he sold them for $5 each. I've had one for years and I suppose all of Stu's regular customers either have or have had one. Other than the wooden Christmas ornament of Maine (with Derry located on it) I would have to say it is among my least favorite King items.I guess my question wasn't the price but more to the point of why someone would get him to sign that particular item when other choices were likely available.

The seller is listed as from Bangor so maybe he saw King in the grocery story and bought one at the checkout counter and got King to sign it. Who knows? I was just saying if you can get King's signature on something that particular item is not what I would personally choose.
"Lunchtime Gloop" is King's go to recipe when he is asked to submit a recipe for a celebrity cookbook (along with "Basic Bread"). Justin Brooks lists 9 appearances. I have 7 different items in my collection that feature "Lunchtime Gloop," including 2 that Brooks does not list. If I was going to get King's signature to go along with "Lunchtime Gloop" I would bring the first appearance which was THE FAMOUS NEW ENGLANDERS COOKBOOK, published in 1984 by Yankee Books. That first appearance also included the now classic King recipes "Basic Bread" and "Egg Puff." These three culinary stalwarts have made their way to dining tables the world over.
That must be why I don't have the Riverdriver's Cookbook (Signed or Unsigned)..... it's not the TRUE FIRST.

picked up one of these today. Nothing valuable, but a good knick knack to decorate the shelves for pretty cheap.

Stephen King painting "It"
Looks like someone took an old painting and drew in the face, boat and balloon.
That's what I thought. Brilliant minds, etc..Looks like someone took an old painting and drew in the face, boat and balloon.
"One day you're going to figure out that everything they taught you was a lie."
And you're right, says so in the item description: Original painting "altered with an IT theme". The mind boggles with how far this concept can go... I want to see a red balloon floating innocently behind the Mona Lisa next.
