Nice additions. Your copy of Rage looks to be in excellent shape.
Yet another copy of RAGE. There must a lot of them out there.
Thanks - very pleased with this one, hope I can get the others in similar condition.
75,000 were published, although survival rate for a paperback will be much lower. On on ebay right now: (not as nice as mine!)
Yes that's the plan, although I can't claim to have been clever about this (I wasn't originally aware of the CD remarques). Vincent has put me on his waiting list - It's nice to have an artist in the UK for a change, certainly reduces the postage cost in sending and receiving the books... (I also have an idea of which scene I'd like him to draw and it definitely wont be like any of the others!)
TMSG - pah! TMLP is where its at :tongue:

With all due respect, just who are you to be calling "the next cool thing" without checking with my "bastard son", Shannon? You guys from across the pond..... Seriously, Alan-G? Put a leash on this puppy or, we'll have to feed him to the pigs!!! LOL LOL LOL

Love the antiquity of the piece Stroppy (no, Wild Bill, not you .. the LP) :P
As to being "the next cool thing" well, not sure on that score - the jury's still out :smile:
new arrivals !!:clap: been waiting on these to arrive for a while.
Bachman PB 1st editions/1st Printings, first up is one of my all time favourite stories - The Long Walk...

It's taken some knocks to the middle side, but not too bad. Pages are clean (usual yellowing) but pretty tight.
Next is The Running Man. This one is in great shape apart from a crease in the top left and a small dent below it. Pages are barely yellowed. There is a crease in the spine (looks like a manufacturing defect) but nothing else, this book has never been read or opened!

and finally... Roadwork. This is the UK 1st/1st but it is MINT I cannot believe this book is over 30 years old. Minor shelf wear on the top and bottom, *minor* staining on the spine (though I think this may clean off, pictures are straight out of the shipping box) but everything else is just perfect. no creases, marks, very white pages and again never been read. I *really* wish this had been a US 1st in this condition!

I don't collect UK 1sts and bought the 3 as a set. Roadwork is therefore up for grabs. I'd like to trade for a nice US Roadwork 1st/1st but open to offers on trades or purchase - PM me.
Great scores on the Bachman's Simon (too bad you don't collect the UK editions, the Roadwork's cherry!!!) :smile:
Nice Bachman books!
NICE Bachman books !!!
Thanks. The price was pretty nice too. Originally they were starting price of $240 and no one bit. I offered him $200 after the auction finished and then retracted when I realised that roadwork was UK not US.
He re-listed at start of $99 and only had 1 bid - mine!. Now I have seen it in person, that roadwork is worth $99 alone!
Congrats, Goblin-Dude!!!
Nice additions and sweet collection! :)
And the paperbacks keep rolling in....
A very nice man just knocked on my door and handed me a little package. Turns out a seller I just bought from lives literally around the corner from me. Cheapest postage on a King book for a LONG time!
Anyway, Colorado Kid 1st/1st (as defined by the 50599 number above the barcode) in absolutely mint unread condition!

Cherry !!! :smile:
A very nice cover, but not one of my favorite King books to read, just to collect.
