I've never heard of a Grant Gunslinger proof--of couse, that in itself doesn't mean much--but if anyone has ever seen one, please let me know.

John, I don't know how tough it is for you to scan and post but I would love to see your anthology proofs/ARCs too.
Nate
I'll be getting to those eventually. I'm just not sure when, given the holidays, etc. It does take quite a bit of effort, mainly because all my books are upstairs, while the computer is on the first floor. I just don't do stairs the way I used to.
John
No rush. I haven't seen many of them so I'm excited to get a view.

Because the actual proof was printed without King's story, a separate copy of The Doctor's Case was included. This is the note that was attached to that copy:

And here's the cover of "The Doctor's Case". This proof is actually loose pages.

I like looking at your collection of proofs, John. I have never been able to add the proof of AMERICAN GOTHIC TALES to my collection. At least now I know what it looks like.
Sweet, sweet collection John. :thumbsup:
It just never ends! Great stuff, John.
John, your thread is always very interesting and educational. Every time I'm done viewing your updates, I have to talk myself down from doing a "harmless" eBay search for ARCs, proofs, etc. We all know where those supposed "just out of curiosity" searches lead.
