AUCTION LINK (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Unique-Stephen-King-Firestarter-slip-case-limited-/111902816787?&rmvSB=true)



TheDarkTower.org is proud to be the EXCLUSIVE site to auction this new, unique and fine Collectible item.
For your consideration is a bespoke slipcase designed and sized to house a first edition sized copy of Stephen King's Firestarter.

Matching the colours and designs of the actual book, this fine example of craftsmanship has been created by renowned slipcase maker Jeff Whiley.
NOTE: Although other cases have been made to this design, THIS case is unique in using TWO colours for the embossing and was the only one made, Jeff will not repeat this colour combination, this is a guaranteed one of a kind.

I added a note to the auction, but be advised this is sized for the US 1st edition!

Nice looking case. I take it this was a pain in the butt for Jeff to make, but I like the 2 colors!

I have some additional news on this item. It WAS won by an infrequent UK member who (thanks to some expedited shipping from Jeff) has agreed to an ADDITIONAL contribution of £35! Doubling the amount raised. In fact as postage was also covered by Jeff, the total amount raised was £73.00!! (approx $103).

Thanks again to all those that bid, (I recognised some of the members by their eBay names :) ) sorry you didn't win, but I think this was a great result for the HF.

RF, I will pm you the buyer's name, so their additional contribution can be recognised in the Grand Prize Draw.
