i cant even begin to touch those awesome collections full of signed limiteds and such, but I do have a collection of galleys that i have carefully collected since the early 80's. my older brother and i both read Stephen King books growing up, i remember when THE SHINING came out, we had a giant newspaper ad for it on the wall, i watched SALEM'S LOT on tv, i remember when THE DEAD ZONE first came out, when i started reading King i picked up a ratty paperback of NIGHT SHIFT and read the most interesting stories first, checking them off in pen on the table of contents ( still have that copy). my father worked in publishing as an editor, and he could get us galleys of king books months before the book was in stores, and thats how my brother and i read every single King book starting with FIRESTARTER and CUJO, we got the galley and we both read it.
a few years ago my older brother passed away, and our collection has come together. i have attended 2 King signings and i got a book signed for me and one for my brother. the pictures below are the galleys we collected , and since then i have tried to complete the collection, i think im about to pass the halfway mark anyway. some other odds and ends that are neat . including one manuscript. enjoy!

the story behind this is, MRS TODDS SHORTCUT was sent to my father for a magazine and he rejected it ( i know i know) and then gave it to me to read,my older brother snagged it from me, like brothers do, and i never saw it again until he passed away, he still had it, just did not take good care of it.

Amazing collection!!!! I'm sorry to hear about your Brother but it sounds like you were able to share a special interest in collecting which is great!!!!
I'd love to see some pictures of the entire cover of MTS manuscript!!
Thanks for sharing, your copy of the IT Galley looks great, bright red and sharp corners!!!!

ZombieElvis
08-04-2016, 08:36 PM
all the pictures so far i already took over the years, and i just had to locate them all in my computer, better pics of the MTS manuscript i have to take new pics, which means i have to dig it out of its secret hiding space. not something im going to do tonite, but soon, ill take pics of the whole thing, lots of hand written changes, i need to sit and compare this to the final draft in skeleton crew, still a lot of galleys id like to get, seems like i cant find or afford any King galleys after LISEYS STORY. which is a shame, i see them all over the place for 200$ and up but thats too high for a casual purchase, for me anyway. i got an IT galley back in 1986 and i read it twice, sold that dog eared split spine copy for 150$, cost me almost twice that to replace it. but thats college for you

A french signed CREEPSHOW? I am jealous !
First time that I see a slipcase for it, so I guess that it's a custom made

~ i bought a slipcase from Cemetery Dance ( for 'the Christmas Thingy' by F Paul Wilson) that looked like it might fit, and it did perfectly! just dumb luck

Do you happen to know how close in size the french Creepshow is to the US edition? It looks to be quite a bit thicker but it's always hard to tell from pics.

I took a quick look at your thread and all of the missing images I tried are reporting "URL signature expired" when testing the URL link you have provided. It looks like images that are showing have a similar format so it's not the way you are providing the link to your hosting site.

Can you check and see if the missing images are still available on your image hosting site? I don't believe the issue is TDT.org related.

thanks Stroppygoblin! your input helps figure out what im doing wrong. part of the problem is posting a URL link is the only way i can post an image, i tried uploading into an album and simply can not figure out how to do it, even after spending an hour on the HELP FAQ section, which gave me detailed ( and confusing) steps for uploading an image. im still so lost, all of the images are in my computer, but if i want to put them up here i first post them on a facebook thread and copy the URL , im stuck!

Maybe Br!an will see your post and chime in. He really gives great instructions for uploading to the site via your computer. It's super simple once ya get it figured out. Although it can be a bit time consuming. But not having to mess with an outside photo service is well worth it. Plus it's free :)

last week i posted my new Creepshow mask, i also posted on facebook, and fellow collector Ian Lever asked me if i had the promotional postcard to go with it, why no, i do not have one i said " You do now!" he replied, and a week later sure enough this postcard arrives, a gift from Ian all the way across the Atlantic in the UK. such generosity!

Very cool, Hans. So the proof also has a card with it??

what looks like the card is actually a picture of the card on the publishers letter. the letter is tipped into the proof and does not want to come out, i did not try too hard. instead i stored it with a backing board to prevent further damage to the letter. i have the first edition from CD with that card anyway. there is another baseball card with uncle Steve on it, i think some are even signed?

if you saw it on eBay, perhaps you were one of the few i outbid, possibly the one who almost beat me the last few seconds when it jumped from $36 to $260.66 ( my max bid) , i figured someone would make a big bid, and i planned for a slightly bigger one just in case! boy did i get lucky!

Nice! I leave the staple in. Must have had a publisher's letter attached at some point uh?

My copy of the Danse proof shows no sign of a staple. It does, however, have writing on the front filling in the price and date. See post #23 in my collection thread. Yours is the only copy I've see without these.

thanks John, i went to your collection , and lost an hour looking at all the wonderful ARCs i still need. your collection is amazing! yes the Danse Macabre i have has no writing on it at all! the only other one i had seen until today was the one Gerald Winters has for sale ( too much $ and too much writing, but that did not stop me from wishing it was mine!) which must have been the one used to mark changes on, and yours now, which has publishing dates written on it. Thrilled about my new Danse Macabre!


Nice! I leave the staple in. Must have had a publisher's letter attached at some point uh?
i wish the publishers letter was still attached! oh well. but that staple troubles me, its denting the pages inside. i might carefully remove it, but for now, the book is in an archival plastic bag.
thanks Brian!

Congratulations, Hans! Just with I knew how big or small those proofs happen to be. I’m flying blind over here!

If it were me, I’d keep the staple but only if there was a way to prevent it from doing damage or tearing the cover later on after I’d forgotten it was there.

We'll have Halloween candy, and costumes are encouraged! The event is free, and the authors donate a portion of their book sale proceeds to the library, so you can have fun, get a bit spooked, and support your local library, too!
