Congratulations, Nick! :)

I haven’t posted much lately in the way of P&J. At Christmas my wife surprised me with the last S/L I needed to complete my collection. A My Pretty Pony. It was something I’ll never forget. It even came with the traycase. I had looking for years and here she is giving it to me on Christmas. I was truly touched and it made my holidays. It was also the nicest copy I have seen.

I wondered what to do moving forward but there is still so much I want to get and today this arrived. I love Whelan and this marks 15 originals for me. I reached out to Audrey and Michael and he had thoughtful memories of painting this. It is a study of Roland from the first Gunslinger and he called it: Gunslinger Eternal Night. It’s just as new and was held by a King collector. I always wanted an older piece... and finally have one. I have since dropped it off to have the glass removed and replaced by new anti glare and UV. My love for collecting will just grow where I have completed my First goal. I still have many more. Here is a couple pictures I took of the piece before I dropped it off to the framer.

Thanks Jim - it really is an awesome responsibility, and puts life in perspective.

[MikeDuke]

Congrats Webstar. That MPP and picture are really great. It must be awesome to be finished with all your signed limited books that you wanted. I guess I have to look at your thread again to see them all.

[racerx45]

I love them both, congrats!

I bought a copy of the unsigned Scream Press Skeleton Crew S/L online. I got a good description over the phone, and figured that since there are only 300 unsigned copies, $75 was a great deal.

The book arrived yesterday. The seller should have looked a little more closely!

WOW!!!

[biomieg]

Nice! By the way, AFAIK there are only 25 unsigned (publisher’s) copies.

[Fsmdr]

You know, I think some sellers who are not book collectors, sees those signatures and think they are printed on the book. Awesome catch!

[cit74]

I just think they do not check the back of the book - and assume they are only signed in the front and if not there then not signed. nice deal

[bdwyer19]

Nice! By the way, AFAIK there are only 25 unsigned (publisher’s) copies.

Yeah, your right. Not sure why I was thinking 300. Still, much happier with the S/L!

[Randall Flagg]

Nice! I agree that sigs in the back can confuse novice sellers.

[herbertwest]

That's cool.
Just wondering, what would be a "fair" value for that book?

[Randall Flagg]

Fair value for S/L Skeleton Crew would be >$500. Probably $600.

Wow! Congratulations!

[Cordial Jim]

Wow, that's some amazing "awesome deals" out there! :) Mine would be a Father Cody 'Salem's Lot for $3 at a college book sale (Gettysburg College in PA). It has a crease on the cover, some chipping on the spine, and a magic marker write-out on the title page, but other than that it's in good condition. I'd say that that was an "awesome deal"! Still can't believe it was just sitting on the table when I found it!

I picked up a copy of the Phantasia Press edition of William Gibson's Neuromancer a year or so ago. The seller said it had a slipcase, but wasn't the signed edition. Once it arrived, I checked the back, to see a very nice signature and number.... I certainly didn't mind paying an eighth of the going price for the signed/limited.

Very cool, mate, it’s a good feeling to have this trilogy Flatsigned. Nicely done..

Thanks Antoni. Yea. It's a cool feeling. But as I said before, having a 1st/1st Salems' Lot and 3 Asbestos Fire Starter's must feel pretty good too.
But thanks. I am doing what I can.

[DoctorZaius]

So, this new one did not cost me a penny. Yesterday, my wife's friend comes by after doing an early spring cleaning of her cellar. Turns out she and her husband visited Bangor 25 years ago and purchased this signed limited edition print. Not sure who Richard A. Manzo is? She thinks she bought it at the old Bett's bookstore. She gave it to me. Never saw one before. Kinda cool.

Big congrats on the Harris! It is truly a beautiful book and the price they had for it during the sale was great. Like most people, when it first came out I was skeptical of the $1250 $1500 price tag, so despite Sub Press's note that it was "one of the finest books" they ever produced I stayed away. Fortunately for me, it was a slow seller precisely because of the hefty price tag, and when they had a 50% off all stock sale a while later, I was very surprised that it wasn't excluded! I ordered it, expecting to be rejected, but lo and behold it came later that week.

It's definitely among the most beautiful books I own - I love the leather inlay on the traycase and the book itself is just marvelous. I'm very happy that someone here snagged it! It made it maybe 2 mins longer than most books (it was still for sale after I completed my first order), I think again because it was the most expensive one on the list and you really have to see it before you get a sense of how awesome it is.

And the Simmons are also very nice of course :)

Thanks, Lotuz! I think the list price was actually $1500 - the PC sale price was $750. You did well to pick up a true lettered for that price. And yes the book is lovely.

I think one reason I was able to get it was not just the high price, but they had multiple PC copies. It was still listed as available after I completed my order.

It's the only way I could own this edition, that's for sure.

In all my years here you never have spoken on this thread to share in your fellow members joy and at a pride and joy. Instead.... The first time I ever see you do.... it’s to bash someone who is obviously proud of what they acquired which is why they came here.... To share that “joy”. I don’t even know what to say. Wow...

[Randall Flagg]

Leave it to Bruce to piss on someone's leg while they are watching a parade.

No hard and fast rule, but in general I would say it is impolite to criticize someone's Pride and Joy unless opinions were solicited.

Also, as has been mentioned numerous times, too much capitalizing is just screaming like a child.

Pos rep sent to Kris. No need to neg rep Bruce as I think even he realizes he is an asshole.

[Roog]

Come on guys, relax.

[herbertwest]

Another way to look at it, is that he complimented the framer's work?

As indicated a few weeks back, been quiet on the boards for awhile but, active behind the scenes in support of growing my collection.

As you know a big part of my collection includes original art from the likes of Dameron, Whelan, Wrightson and others. All published art in support of King’s work.

With that, picked up the original cover art for the UK Edition of Needful Things by Steve Crisp a few weeks back. Pretty cool piece, thought I would share.

Certainly worth being a little quiet to come up with a piece like this!
I think it is wonderful. What a gem.
My guess is that will be with you for quite a few years to come.
Congratulations Tim.

My concern about Tim's acquisition is, "What mysterious deed" did he have to do to get that painting? Did he buy it direct from Leland Gaunt?

So cool. It’s the kind of piece that could be hung anywhere in the house or office.

Question, when someone says “original cover art,” does that mean it’s the one and only painting that was scanned to be used for the cover/DJ? There can only be one of these per book, right?

[AKC]

In an effort to keep the Thread rolling a bit....

Just picked up the original art by Ned Dameron that was used as an interior illustration in the Centipede Press publication of Knowing Darkness.

Ned’s interpretation of GERALD’S GAME. A very dark palette and corresponding interpretation of what happened inside that house. If you’ve got time, take a look at the details. The moonlight is appropriately eerie and both the dog and the face in the mirror above the dresser literally freak me out...

A very large piece at 30 x 44.

Hope you find this as creepy as I do....

Not a big fan of either Needful things or Geralds Game, but DAMN thats great art! I am almost wanting to put GG on my reread list, even though it is in my bottom 5 SK books. (after seeing the movie and that Painting, my opinion is changing).

I'm confused about your comment about the mirror. I don't see a mirror, it looks like a painting of a butterfly, or am I having selective vision again.

I too, can perhaps see it as a painting as well. The beauty of art is individualized interpretation.

Original, published pieces by Mr. Bernie Wrightson.

Safe to say you will recognize these but, if not, they are from THE STAND and CYCLE OF THE WEREWOLF respectively.

Headed to the frame shop to get them redone. Better glass needed but, you get the idea.

CONGRATS Bryan!!!!

[palooka]

What a wonderful place this is, I've been a lurker for a very long time and decided to finally sign up last week. And this is my first post.

I've been a King fan for nearly 40 years but I'm not the usual type of collector who roam these pages. I tend pick out just one or two pieces and try and display them as best I can

I have little chance of amassing a significant book collection like those here. I'm very impressed with some of the incredible libraries I've seen on the My Collection pages. Just phenomenal.

What I've decided to post is a couple of pictures of my signed and inscribed book. And it is Stephen King related. And it is rare - in fact - one of a kind. I also believe that nearly all of the readers here will have seen it before.

So with that tease, I realize I'll be back in a couple of hours with the images. sorry, this drum role is not deliberate, I just realized my images are not accessible for me at this precise moment. Please have patience with this newb.

Exciting!
Welcome aboard palooka !

So, I have owned this for about 10 years now. The handwriting, creases, folds and the cut-out all match exactly on screen.

I was lucky enough to meet Frank Darabont and he explained they only had time to finish one book for filming.

Our very own David Williamson... WOULD LOVE this:) Very cool!

[wizardsrainbow]

WOW! That is very very special....CONGRATS! I've searched for years to find an authentic rock hammer that looks exactly like the one Andy used in the movie but I (and others I know) have not found such an item...this bible is way way cool!

[MikeDuke]

That is REALLY cool. I loved that part in the movie. Congrats on having such a unique item.

[Room 217 Caretaker]

Yes sir! That is way cool!

Thread Station Break:

A fun fact about the Shawshank Bible (most of you probably already know). Frank used two in the movie filming. As Palooka already pointed out, only one had the hammer routing done (a very delicate process) and it had a black ribbon. The scene where the warden hands the bible through the bars has a purple ribbon. Two bibles used for the filming.

....and now....back to our normal thread conversation.

I seriously jaw dropped at that Shawshank Bible. That’s one of the coolest collectibles I’ve seen.

[Pasiuk57]

VERY nice item!

Amazing! If I would ever own a single prop item, this would be it. Wow...spectacular!

[herbertwest]

Wow, that is SO cool!

I bet that Lilja would be very envious for his Marv's museum, full of movie props.

That is fantastic, I'd like to hear how you acquired it if there is a tale to tell. Just don't say you found it at a goodwill store in Hollywood!

[peripheral]

Hell yes, that’s magnificent - a true collectible. Congratulations (and yes, love to know how you acquired it)

[Hunchback Jack]

Wow, that's an amazing collectible to have! A hugely significant prop in a hugely popular movie, and immediately recognizable to so many people. Congratulations!

[palooka]

Thank you for the wonderful feedback. I figured you folk might enjoy seeing it

No great quest or mission to take ownership of the Bible. Props is my day to day business and we were approached by the previous owner. So sadly no "look what I found in the garbage" story.

I have a couple of other pieces that I'll post soon. Well, as soon as the builders are gone and I can inbox everything again.

[Hunchback Jack]

The fact that the rock hammer cutout starts at the book of Exodus is neat.

The Centipede S/L edition of If You Could See Me Now, by Peter Straub - fresh and minty straight from the publisher!

They still have some copies available. This was OOP, so I guess Jerad found some extras.

That's beautiful, and I am still contemplating getting one... but you may have swayed me!

Just got mine too. Do you know what the little Night King Thriller magnet thing is? A bookmark?

[Penny_Un_Wise]

Thanks to Room217Caretaker with helping me acquire a very nice Spanish edition, I have one sweet collection of Gungslingers.
