They have been doing a few awesome limiteds - they are primary focus is Fantasy or Grimdark. Great value - especially their Shanarra Trilogy. I think I have a few in my thread - Cheers!

What an absolutely magnificent visual feast! A total treat that I very much enjoyed today :)

I love the "A" subcollection. I'd bet it's a hard one though! I have my preference of letters that I will always request when I'm able to buy a book new, but I'd bet that "A" is spoken for a lot. A nice array of colors even in just that one letter, though! Wow!

[ym2000]

Letter A is when collecting is transformed into new level of sickness. HAHAHA.
It is usually assigned at random at Subterranean Press. Im not sure how the other publishers are doing it but its definitely the rarest letter in my years of search!

The only Sub Press letter A I have is VENUS ON THE HALF SHELL AND OTHER STORIES by Philip Jose Farmer, which, for reasons uninteresting, I neglected to order from the publisher when announced, and ended up buying from a member here, much to my delight.

I also admire your photographic skills.

Supernice new stuff, BIG CONGRATS !!!

[MikeDuke]

I really don't know how it's possible that this thread keeps on getting better and better, but it does. I just wander in here to look at the wonderful stuff, even if I have
seen it before in here.

[lotuz]

I love the rounded spine on the Dangerous Ways traycase! Why oh why didn't they do the same thing for Desperate Days?!

That said, doing interesting stuff with the spine of a traycase - rounding, hubbing, tooling, etc. - is an overlooked feature in a lot of small press offerings, which makes that Dangerous Ways an especially pretty book! That, and the material looks really neat. Nice grab, that pair :)

I'll be interested to keep up with your Vance acquisitions; a good sized output among a number of small presses. I don't collect him (yet, perhaps) but have been eyeing his stuff in Steve's collection thread, who first introduced me to the lettered Dangerous Ways when he commented that the Sub Press lettered edition was one of his most favorite books (or something similar) and posted a pic when I asked about it.

[Hunchback Jack]

It's the one thing about SubPress that dismays me - they sometimes change a traycase or book design halfway through a series. I like that they switch it up sometimes, and experiment with new approaches, but I wish they would keep a series looking uniform.

(They usually do, I should stress, but at least a couple of times they haven't).

Hell yes, congratulations!! This is a fantastic way to start. And I'm happy we're going to get top notch pictures of the Vance lettereds!

Speaking about SP traycases, I'm not a fan of the rounded spine when it's the odd man out (like the lettered of The Neutronium Alchemist), but I really like the Dangerous Ways traycase. It looks good.

[ym2000]

I spent some time researching as to why it is.
Most of the answers did not lead to experimentation but rather something else. For example - really old school cases with a flap ( Fevre Dream, Old Man's War) - they were discontinued due to constant quality issues and the binder who made them. The new binder after that ( happened to many presses at some point) did not make in business very long and there was another switch. And the last reason is the gap between the books themselves - the years between editions in the series. Longer time - more chances it will not match. You would be surprised but many publishers do not keep a "design book" of all their productions so for the most part they have to do a research as to what the heck did they produce this book in. Publishers even reached out to me for photos of their own book in order to show the design to binder. Now say if that work is not done, then you get completely different tray case and you and I will be sitting scratching our heads and freaking out because cases dont match, lol
This last one is a tough one for all OCD people. Hopefully with a help of online photography "database" and better cataloging software inconsistencies will be rare. I pray they will be.

Oh well, we can't get everything right?

[ym2000]

This has been on my "to get list" for a few years. As an avid science fiction fan - I just "had to" find one of the best space operas published by Subterranean Press.
I was presented with an opportunity to buy this set a year or so ago but I was in a bit of a funk and decided to pass. Regretted it later. Due to some lucky circumstances last month I was offered to purchase it again and could not pass up.
This collection is one of only 15 available and considering how many stand alone editions I have seen for sale over the years, I would say its one of 15 or less. Way less. :)

Thank you - you are way too kind! I need to find more creativity in book photography! On the other hand it is about the book not the art of taking a photo of the book, lol
I did see some great photography of paperbacks so its not all about beautiful books - although some PB are super cool.

Great photos, Yegor. Congratulations on your new Jack Vance acquisitions, and that old man’s war series is a real prize! I haven’t seen some of those lettered editions before-thank you for posting them!

And, of course, the silence of the lambs. What an incredible edition! You really brought out its magnificence. I think the Suntup red dragon lettered edition will be a fitting companion for it.

[ym2000]

I wanted to share a few photos of last few weeks acquisitions - so Im going to combine them all into one and post shots of highlights that I loved about these books.

First is Asimov's Foundation Trilogy by Easton Press, which I have no idea why I need to get into EP collecting again, but I wanted this book real bad apparently. It has a signature of Michael Whelan and James Gunn as well as Asimov. Which is cool.

The Lottery by Shirley Jackson.
Suntup Editions, 2020
I love photographing unique books as they present a really fun way to experiment and challenge me creatively at the same time.
There are many examples of these types of books in the past as recent as Limited edition of Let The Right One In - the boards had almost jewel like texture that has a beautiful sparkle depending on the angle.
When I've read Becca describing The Lottery boards as Caviar I was immediately intrigued - I am Russian after all, lol (And depending on the depth of field, it does look a lot like belugas opalescent and luminous eggs)
Obsidian color shagreen stingray is truly gorgeous in any light - with texture resembling diamonds and pearls with a stunning crown in the middle.

WOW. Man I wish can get lettered books. That Lottery looks amazing. Even though I swam with Sting Rays and I find it hard to have a book made out of their skin. But that's just me. Becca explained to me how they got the skins so I am good with that.
It's still an amazing production (truth be told, I would not mind owning one). And awesome photos, as usual. Maybe one day I will be able to get a lettered something.
Congrats again.

[ym2000]

Thank you!
My wife spent a lot of time swimming with stingrays in Bora Bora - I just took pictures so Im OK with pretty much anything but yes the process is not what you think.
As to lettered editions - Suntup is one press that definitely makes completely different book with that edition. For the most part of every other publisher its an "upgrade" of sort over limited but not something totally new.

Senlin Ascends and Arm Of Sphinx by Josiah Bancroft
Subterranean Press, Lettered
Art by Thomas Kidd.
As much as I loved numbered editions that were published earlier this year, the lettereds will be a highlight for Subterranean Press for years to come.
There are many cool little elements about this production - I’m gonna point out the obvious ones.
This is the first time ever SP produced a book with bradel binding - where the boards are separate from the spine, and the result is nothing short of spectacular.
I love the train embossing on a traycase to match signature page and the tickets - which were also given out with numbered edition.

Amazing books (and photographs). The more I see Falling Angel from CP, the more I want it. (I'm about to start reading it, too)...

[Hunchback Jack]

Wow, those Bancroft lettered editions are amazing! And it looks like SubPress used a different method of binding for them - fantastic and unique.

I passed on these as I hadn't read the novels and didn't know the author. Thanks for showing us how they look. Just gorgeous.

(And beautiful photos as always, Yegor).

Edited to add: oh, I see you mentioned the binding already. :) I should read the text instead of just gawking at the photos next time.

Neuromancer, 2021 - Lettered edition

I remember the first time I saw this prototype.
My immediate reaction was - holy sh@%! this is the most amazing and creative thing I have seen in my book collecting history! Imagine a printed circuit board that is absolutely perfect for a work of science fiction like this, with a title and Gibson' name looking beautifully so it looks like its always been there, it belonged.
The back board which is not shown in release photos is also printed with a beautiful logo.
Both Lettered and limited editions will be a collecting grail for years to come.

Cardinal Black by Robert McCammon
Art by Vincent Chong, Cemetery Dance, 2020
This edition has been delayed by COVID-19 and when it finally arrived I could not wait to see what Brian and Cemetery Dance will do with the lettered, how will they continue the legacy that Subterranean started with earlier Corbett books.
It did not disappoint - although traycase leather feel is a bit different than SP, overall presentation is top notch, including beautiful endpapers and traycase inlays, design and of course Vinny Chong illustrations are amazing.
I ended up selling almost all of my McCammons earlier this year keeping only limited and lettered of this series.

Red Dragon by Thomas Harris
Suntup Editions, 2020. Numbered and Lettered editions.
Since I do not own Misery anymore by Stephen King which is to me the best limited ( numbered ) edition ever made - I will venture out and say that this is very close second and it’s not that easy to choose .

Very nice! I hadn’t seen the pawn of prophecy lettered edition before; it looks like a very nice book.

Great productions and photos!

The Time Machine by H.G. Wells
Suntup Editions - Roman Numeral Edition, one of only five copies.
Not often one gets to photograph a $13,000 book. This beauty of design and craftsmanship spent a few days with me on a project for Paul Suntup and it was really sad ( hard, devastating, whichever) to send it back to California😜.

Wow, that is one finely crafted book.

[Black Miau]

Sometimes perfection is tangible but unattainable.
I would like to have it, but with less fine materials, I still may not be able to buy it yet.

Added one more to my Jack Vance collection. Still I think one remains. This never ends!!! :)

Full Throttle by Joe Hill.
Original Art and throughout the book is by Dave McKean.
Subterranean Press, 2020. One of 26 Lettered copies.
One of the biggest surprises of the year ( below on this) - this beautiful edition that I tried to capture some of my favorite production details and of course the stories.
When people were receiving these books at home they discovered that this edition was also signed by Stephen King who co-wrote on some stories with Joe Hill.

Full Throttle... I am in love with that book. You are very lucky to have it. A surprise that now puts it in my crosshairs. Love it!!!!

[GenericEric]

Full Throttle lettered is a beautiful book as well is the limited edition.

I know a lot of people thought the $175 price for the limited edition was too much but I love what SubPress did with the book. Great production by them.

[Brian861]

Gorgeous productions all around!

[Garrell]

Yep, I love my limited. That lettered one is even more amazing.

[jon10g]

Wow. The lettered Full Throttle looks absolutely amazing!

[peripheral]

Just spent almost 10 minutes admiring all of these photos. What gorgeous, meticulously crafted works of art, each and all of these books. That Dan Simmons though, I do that edition especially.
