    Is the box solid wood or is it veneer?

    It is "solid" wood pieces glued together. There is no laminate overlay, but the lid and box are not literally carved out of a single block of wood.

    Article has been updated.
    "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

    Have one sitting beside me. #95 out of 1250. New to this site but since I was once burned for $1400.00 on eBay for signed Stephen King books I feel like an old charred member. I know, join this site, start hawking a book but need funds due to two major surgeries in 5 months. All my signed books are my 401-k anyway. Lifelong bookseller and author. Interested send me an email at raymondcothern@hotmail.com or find the listing on eBay under my user name raymondcothern (I think) or find the book. It's the only one listed. Like the look of the site and can't wait to delve around.

    This listing and stephenkingcollector.com say that there was a lettered edition (of 52) of this, but TDT has no page for it (just the S/L, here), nor does SKC have a description of it beyond saying

    The fabled lettered edition (labeled A-ZZ). From what I understand these lettered copies were never available for sale to the public.
    The word "fabled" and the phrase "from what I understand" make me wonder - has this edition been seen by anyone having anything to do with TDT? Does it definitely exist? It all seems quite mysterious.
    It seems I'm miles above the surface of the Earth

    I can see across the whole of London and beyond

    I remember this one "WW" from ebay not long ago. They definitely exist just hard to find. From what I can see, it is the exact same beyond letters, which is why it probably didn't get its own page.

    That's disappointing, but expected, I guess, given how full-out they went on the S/L. I had thought "if they did this with the S/L, think what could they possibly have done with the lettered?" Visions of levers, pulleys, precious metals, etc. danced in my head...
