I would be interested in the Doubleday cases depending on final price shipped to US.
I don't actually own Dolan's Cadillac, but I'd probably buy the slipcase as I will eventually buy the book.
Does it mean you have a problem when you buy slipcases for books you don't own yet?! Hmmm...
OK, so the entire design has to fit on one plate as I understand it. The price of the plate is directly proportional to the plate size, so if you have a big space between one part of the design and the other this increases the plate size and therefore the cost. Keeping the design together ensures the smallest plate and lowest cost.
Here is the design for the Castle Rock Newsletter case. I have done some digging and according to US law, If I print the font, scan it and then draw around it I am NOT infringing copyright as it is considered new work. This is what I have done in all cases. I am not actually using ANY published fonts but my own drawings (based upon the original).

I realised the spines for Carrie and Shining were not to scale (Carrie is quite a thin book) I have resized based on the actual books.

Put me down for Doubleday slipcases. Also a slipcase for all four Bachman paperbacks if there is enough interest.
I really like the Castle Rock one. And regarding your point on the larger block increasing costs, I hadn't considered that so I'm okay with the Doubleday being where you have it. Not sure how the rest of the folks feel about it.
The Dolan's Cadillac slipcase looks great! Against my better judgement to save money at the moment put me down for three.
Simon... where is the Dolan's prototype? LOL I keep checking for it. haha
The Dolans Cadillac could have gray or silver font and the Cadillac the same color. In the book the Cadillac is referred to as gray and silver. The yellow seems off.
Carrie and Shining, to scale, look great next to each other. Having a set of these will look excellent on the shelf - well done!

All depending on final price shipped to the Netherlands.

Got it. Keep in mind, shipping and actual orders for the slipcases will be handled with Jeff directly. What we're doing here is combining resources to bring down the cost of the custom blocking order. It's a one-time cost needed to produce the plates for the printing on the cases.
What is the cost typically to create the custom block?
Sorry if it's been answered already.
