I now there is discussion about this contest in the Collectors forum but I wanted to also put a thread here so general site membership could take advantage of it as well.
Please go over and answer the very easy questions, this contest is too great to pass up.

For more information on this special black variant case, click here (http://www.stephenkingcollector.com/standvariant.html).
From skcollector.com:
This case features a white faux leather grain pattern with the title in bold black text and the author stamped in red foil. The font was selected to match the font used on the book Dust Jacket. There's an oval opening in the front that allows a portion of the beautifully designed DJ to be seen when enclosed in the case. A three sided inner box allows for very easy removal of the book with no excess tightness. The case is shut via hidden neodymium magnets -giving a very satisfying snap when closed.
Multiple prototypes were made (and scrapped) to get the design just right. From the materials used, to the shape and size of the oval window, to the number and size of magnets used to shut the case with the correct force while keeping it easy to open when desired. I'm confident you'll love this case!
Emmanuel from VFB has just become a special contributor to our fund raiser and I would love it if he got some good hits on his contest.
