Wonderful piece Jerome !

Got a 1st/1st of Blockbuster Billy today, flatsigned, from a trusted seller :thumbsup: This is the Scribner hardcover with Morality included, not the Cemetery Dance edition, but the S/L version of Blockade Billy is quite pricey! I'd forgotton how small in dimensions this book is!

Congratulations John, Very nice.

[killjoy72]

Way to go! You don't see those signed too often.

[zelig]

Nice one John. Congratulations!

[jhanic]

A nice acquisition!

John

[Jimimck]

Very cool to see a BB signed.

Is it just me or did anyone else enjoy Morality more than BB?

[Randall Flagg]

Very cool to see a BB signed.

Morality was one of the best short stories I've ever read.

Congrats, boys!!! :clap::clap::clap:

Not Stephen King, but I wanted to post pics of a great deal I received! A lettered (GG) copy of Hunger and Thirst by Matheson for $125. Beautiful workmanship! Hard to believe, but this is the first Matheson I own (and haven't read anything of his yet!), and my first lettered anything!

Congrats John!!!!

[killjoy72]

Looks amazing!

[Lot guy]

This came yesterday & while not King related it is TDT.org related. I commissioned this for my Son by our very own Killjoy72/James. He did an amazing job and highly RECCOMEND his work if your thinking of having some specialty art produced!!!!
These iPhone pictures do NOT do his talent justice!!!!

A nice 1st/1st signed copy from a reputable seller :smile: to mingle with my Pet Sematary proof (it does have the Y38 gutter code)!

Congrats John - keep going, not so many left :)

[allasorte]

Great job "goheat" as it is so hard to find a Pet Semetery in that condition. It took me years to find mine, not signed, but I'm ecstatic with mine less the signature. Good for you!

[goheat]

Congrats John - keep going, not so many left :)

Yeah, but still plenty of the 'oldies' left to go, Shac!

Some anthologies I picked up recently




Nice stuff, congratulations! I love that Permabound Gunslinger myself!

[George at C-Springs]

Totally not SK, but horror and a new P&J none the less. I collect movie posters as well; this is a linen-mounted 1970 Italian release called "The Mask of Frankenstein" which was actually the 1957 movie "The Curse of Frankenstein" starring Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. Going to look great framed and hanging in the man-cave 13 years or so from now when the kids are out and I can have a man-cave!

More goodies today! Still trying to locate another book that the USPS alleges was 'delivered' to the office mailbox/locker yesterday, but definitely was not! It isn't a Stephen King book, but still, aggravating dealing with the Postal Service!

Anyway,

Thanks guys! I've actually been meaning to start my own art thread on here. It's just been hard to find the time!
Here's some of my swag from the past couple of weeks:

http://i723.photobucket.com/albums/ww233/fantagor72/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpshoiy0ue6.jpg

Inscribed 1st/1st of The Talisman (dated on my birthday, give or take a couple years) and a 1st/1st Lisey's Story inscribed "To Jimmy" (close enough to my own name!), a Turtleback Joyland, and finally, my true pride and joy: I finally got a copy of "Rage". This now completes my SK US 1st edition collection!

[Lot guy]

AWESOME James!!!! Congrats on a great haul of excellent additions!!!!
John as always great books!!!! How many signed SK books do you have now?
Congrats to all!!!!

[killjoy72]

AWESOME James!!!! Congrats on a great haul of excellent additions!!!!

Thanks as always, Matt!

Indeed it is! It's very gratifying looking at the shelf and seeing Carrie, 'Salem's Lot, The Shining, Rage, Night Shift, and The Stand etc. all together!


Congratulations, awesome James! LOVE those signatures, Rage and the turtlebound!!!

Haha, figures YOU would like the signed books, John. Thanks! I still have quite a ways to go before I'll ever catch up to you!

Yeah, it's high on my list too as like Dolan's it's a book that I don't have in any other stand alone form. But I find it hard to pay that much for a paperback, especially when there are other signed limited books like Firestarter and Christine that are far more desirable and less money!

Not that I can afford those either.... :(

My most recent SK acquisition is the Cemetery Dance gift edition of Carrie. They did a beautiful job with this book and I look forward to the rest of the series. No need to post a picture as others have already done so. However I will post pics of some SK related art by Robert Addison (Second Coming prototype artist) that I acquired this weekend.

The first image is of Girl In The Yard 1960, 19.5"x29.5" Egg Tempera on board. I love the surreal vibe of this painting
http://www.thedarktower.org/gallery/data/500/medium/Girl_In_The_Yard_c.jpg

Next up is Store Fronts 1961, 19.5"x34.5", Egg Tempera on board. Fun fact: the individual in the lower left standing across the street and reflected in the window is Addison's roommate, Leroy Neiman.

Quality picture hangers securely mounted to walls and frame, away from sunlight, away from fluorescent lights, away from grimy little hands and paws, away from where a sprinkler might accidentally go off, away from kitchen smoke and grease, away from even the remotest possibility of an "oops" ... right?

For all you Beatles fans out there, my new P&J ... a perfect original 1968 Yellow Submarine playbill from Belgium. It's gorgeous in person; I just sat there and stared at it and had flashbacks to being a kid (not in Belgium). Probably dream of Blue Meanies tonight. Ringo hasn't changed much.

For all you Beatles fans out there, my new P&J ... a perfect original 1968 Yellow Submarine playbill from Belgium. It's gorgeous in person; I just sat there and stared at it and had flashbacks to being a kid (not in Belgium). Probably dream of Blue Meanies tonight. Ringo hasn't changed much.

LOVE IT!

Huge Beatles fan, despite only being 38. I saw Ringo in concert last year, and am hanging out for McCartney to announce a tour that includes NZ.

[George at C-Springs]

LOVE IT!

I saw McCartney in 1993; best concert I've ever been to. He did 95% Beatles with just a couple of Wings mixed in; it was just like being at a Beatles concert. That was still fairly soon after John Lennon was killed too, so when they put him up on the big screen and did his songs it was all really emotional. Great great show, hope you get to see him.

Congrats George!!!!

Agree there! I saw him on the same tour at Joe Robbie Stadium in Miami, and it was amazing.

Wow!!! Awesome, George. Just awesome!!!

[herbertwest]

The other day I've seen a set of magazines being sold for 20€ (a set of 95 magazines), I contacted the seller asking if could buy just one. Wasnt keen of it, so I bought a whole year of magazine, for 10€.
It included a very rare french item, with an abridged version of CARRIE. I previously had one of those and got it signed when King was in Paris.

May have some other awesome deals comin in :)

[Lot guy]

Congrats Jeremy!!!!

[KingKorn]

In my opinion, whoever got this one got a pretty awesome deal. I was trying to bid using my phone during the last 2 minutes, but 'something happened' and I couldn't get through.

Sure, there's some bumping and it's missing accessories, but those can be pieced together over the years. I just picked up the signed Art of Skeleton Crew portfolio for $20 the other day. I would've liked to win this one.

Skeleton Crew Stephen King signed limited edition 1/1000 NO NUMBER 1985 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Skeleton-Crew-Stephen-King-signed-limited-edition-1-1000-NO-NUMBER-1985-/351376295227?nma=true&si=OGP8Ibz7PBULKsil4nTckvju344%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557)

I don't think so... I seen this and did not bother... it is not in perfect shape AND missing some key items. For me that is a fail. In my time of collecting I have never seen those key items up for sale that would allow you to "piece" this collectable back together. I think this went for the right price...

[Ari_Racing]

I think it's a great deal. Despite the fact of being a limited edition without the DJ and slipcase, it ends up being a signed edition for less than 200 bucks.

[webstar1000]

That is true... but there has been a dozen books on here signed for around a hundred the last few days... mind you they are paperbacks. I just did not think it fit the "awesome deal" category. Im no expert though! lol

Yeah, to each their own on what constitutes "awesome". Fortunately we're all free to post our own perceived awesome deals... and ones that others got when our fat fingers can't move quickly enough to get in one last bid.

For me, the selling price of an actual mid 80's low run S/L from a defunct publishing house, Potter interior illustrations, extra story not in mass edition, quality of materials, etc. just doesn't compare well (in terms of dollar for dollar value) with flat signed later print paperbacks.

Wasn't arguing with ya my man... just giving my opinion. Sometimes people want it... sometimes they don't. lol

[Rahfa]

I don't know about an awesome deal, but it's a good deal - it is an out-of-series S/L edition, after all. I think a signed older book like that is worth $150 for the verified signature alone.

[goheat]

A couple of new King items:
Advanced Uncorrected Proof of Full Dark, No Stars I got for $15! It has some underlining in it (I guess the person actually used it to review!), but for $15 I thought it was neat.
http://www.thedarktower.org/gallery/data/500/medium/IMG_0969.JPG

A signed Holdorf-covered copy of Carrie with a neat inscription. I normally look for books without inscriptions (unless they're to John) but this one was too cool to pass up, especially on a Carrie, let alone a Holdorf Carrie!

Love the colors on the slip cases! People will start sending that photo to Jeff saying Yes please....

I will say when I sent in the color choices I wasn't sure if he would/could do them. Jeff did state that there might be some slight difficulties on the Beige/Red but that one came out perfect. However the White/Black took a little tweaking, the black would not adhere perfectly to the white material but a sharpie fixed the very few spots and you cannot even tell no matter how close you look. If you are thinking about ordering from Jeff, I recommend it.

here is a pic of 4 recent pride and joys for me:

http://www.thedarktower.org/gallery/data/500/medium/IMG_20150427_221715459.jpg

For those who think I can't count to 4 :wink: the fourth item is the couch they are on. Just received on Sunday a Lazy-Boy sectional couch. Has two powered recliners, one manual recliner, and console with a drawer and a compartment for remotes, plus 2 power outlets for laptops, and 2 (or is it 3) usb ports for charging. Sorry didn't take a picture of the whole thing.

Six Stories I received in mid March. Normally I don't bother with after market signatures/inscriptions, but this one didn't seem to impact the price so I went for it since it was Roman Numeraled.

I picked up NLR Monday at Fedex and had it signed Tuesday, it was meant to be. I left with 2 'Salem's Lot books but I gave a copy to Glen/Roseannebarr. He and his Family went out of there way to welcome and lookout for my Mom while I was getting the NLR signed. He is a member I'm lucky to call my friend.

My second favorite author is Bernard Werber, a french author that mixes fiction, science & philosophy in his books. He is mostly known as the author of a trilogy of books about ants, and only his first book was translated into english : EMPIRE OF THE ANTS (translated in over 30 languages).

Today, and after years of searching a 1st / 1st of this book, I managed to find one (accidentally), for less than a tener !

1st print, february 1991, one out of 20,000 printed copies, and quite a very fine copy !
He will be participating at an event next month, so I'll try to get it signed :)

Yes, mine's the same. The front matches the bottom which then is matched to the back and top. The only sides that don't match are the top with the front. But, it is quite close so doesn't look out of place. It very nicely done!

The proof is the second one (I already had one). I'll probably put it for sale next week.

[zelig]

Congratulations on the Carrie ARC!

Here's my new P&J. Just picked it up yesterday. The US Cujo proof in what I'd say is NF/F condition. Oh, and it's signed! :rock:

[jonp]

Wow! Congratulations Paul. That is possibly the nicest copy of the US Cujo proof I've seen. And signed too!

[goheat]

Wow, congrats to all! Some amazing proofs Killjoy and Paul, and awesome stuff from Kevin and Ari too! Keep them coming!

[jhanic]

Congratulations Killjoy and Paul! Some very nice items indeed.

[killjoy72]

Great Cujo proof, zelig!!
Thanks everyone!

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL Paul!!!!

Thanks guys, appreciate it.

Ari, the New York Times and New York Times Book Review to the right, what pieces do they contain?

[jhanic]

I got my copy of the Finders Keepers broadside today.

John

[Pasiuk57]

If you get a second I'm interested. I have a UK proof coming. When I get it I'll post something.

Finders Keepers Broadside signed by Bob Odenkirk (aka Saul Goodman/Jimmy McGill) in Hollywood today. He was shopping in the bookstore where I bought it. He asked me "am I wrecking a Stephen King thing?"

[Randall Flagg]

I think you just ruined a perfectly good $15 item:)

Haha, that's an awesome story. Now you need to frame it and get that quote from Odenkirk engraved to go along with it.

[jhanic]

Just who is this Bob Odenkirk?

John

[tippy4]

The star of Better Call Saul...a spinoff of Breaking Bad.

He was also in Fargo the TV series.

All three shows are excellent in my opinion.

[tippy4]

I think you just ruined a perfectly good $15 item:)

Actually...I ruined a $9.60 item....the clerk handed me a 20% off coupon upon my arrival (original price $12).

On a related topic, I have heard that some stores are charging more than $12.

A bit underhanded considering the intent behind the promo.

Fantastic Cujo proof, zelig!

[webstar1000]

I don't get what the fuss is all about for these... Doesn't interest me at all.

[Randall Flagg]

A bit underhanded considering the intent behind the promo.

What was underhanded?

[Theli]

I meant the mark up in stores, though it seems there wasn't a MSRP, so what do I know.

[Theli]

I don't get what the fuss is all about for these... Doesn't interest me at all.

I kind of agree. Wasn't really terribly interested myself. Sure, I'd have grabbed if it'd been available here for retail, and I did bid on the auction (outbid already), but that's about all the effort I'm gonna make.

[Randall Flagg]

I meant the mark up in stores, though it seems there wasn't a MSRP, so what do I know.
I think the idea was that independant bookstores were offered the item at essentially cost. Even on a $12 item, unless someone purchased other things, the store made $8 or less (I don't know if stores paid for shipping). I am happy for the stores.
As mentioned, some stores (none around here that I am aware of) apparently offered it at cost.

[needfulthings]

YOU HAD BOB SIGN WHAT?
http://imageshack.com/a/img673/8712/RttrCA.jpg
Wasted signature since Odenkirk has NOTHING to do with King.(You better hope he will star in the movie.) You would have been better off having him sign the back of the sales slip That you could put inside of a Breaking Bad DVD case.

[bdwyer19]

I don't get what the fuss is all about for these... Doesn't interest me at all.

I completely agree. A bookstore 30 miles from me has several available. It just doesn't seem worth the drive.

[Randall Flagg]

Rest assured 5+ years from now a "new" collector will be frantic to obtain one.
Even then they will be available at a reasonable price.

One of the members from this site, he lives close to me in the Cleveland area, sent me an email about this broadside poster. I called both stores. One had 2 left and was closing and wouldn't hold them. The other store had 3 left and would hold them. I figured, for 12 bucks a piece.....sure. I went there, and she sold me them for 5 bucks a piece, 16 and change out the door for all 3. Guess I made out :).:rock:

[jhanic]

Thanks everyone for the answer about Bob Odenkirk. I don't watch Breaking Bad (it's past my bed time--I'm old, remember?)

RF, I don't think I agree that the price will drop significantly in the future. There were only 1500 copies done. Of course, that's just my opinion.

I was there to buy a Finders Keepers Broadside......so for me, it was appropriate that he sign one of five copies I bought at that particular store.

The Odenkirk signature has no real monetary value anyhow....and I have no intention of selling it, so if I am happy with it, that is all that matters.

Got this from priest - mint signed under the dome 1st. Thanks man

I get up at the crack of 10 A.M. (so that should put you in bed at midnight) or are you just sleeping your life away?:smile:

Congratulations all! I LOVE the broadside signed by Bob! Loved Breaking Bad and like a lot Better Call Saul. Fargo is still on queue

Exactly!!! Put this with a TMSG and list it on eBay for $500 in five years!!! LOL

I still think our shenanigans a while back were directly responsible for the market up tick for TMSG!!! LOL

Holy Shit! That just reminded me! I have an extra HF item that was sent to me months ago from a contact at Hodder. I had put it away and forgot all about it.

This is the item, I can either put it on eBay or we can do a 'sealed bid' auction here and save on some ebay Fees. Highest bid sent to me before the end of next week wins, I will cover postage anywhere in the world. I'll also include the envelope it was sent in (it does have my address on it though). What does everyone prefer?

Both are first editions. Firestarter is in surprisingly good condition, it's tight and no creasing to the spine, so I doubt it's even been read. Still some yellowing to the pages though. Got them for a damn good deal too, $15 plus shipping :)
