25 items? That's pretty cool !
I've only seen one Legends uncorrected proof available for sale and it was John's copy. Was lucky enough to grab that one.
Thanks for refreshing this thread, Herbertwest. Didn't know John personally, but the dude was a wealth of knowledge and huge contributor to this site. Definitely learned a thing or two from the guy.
I ended up with 4. Should have bought more in the beginging, but these are what I got
The Regulators Manuscripts in comb binding only 12 made
Desperation 2nd state Manuscript in comb binding only 12
Full Dark No Stars proof with black cover only 10 made. I think called a gallery proof
The Bazaar or Bad Dreams proof
I feel honered to have these in my collection.
Hi, all! I've been super busy with work and haven't been very active, but did want to share what I purchased from John's collection:
1. Ohio 95----Whispers proof
2. Ohio 126---Wizard and Glass Manuscript
3. Ohio 216---Misery bluelines
4. Ohio 220---LSOE Page Block
5. Ohio 221---Cycle of the Werewolf (2 versions of the manuscript)
6. Ohio 225---Cell bluelines
7. Ohio 253---Joyland proof
8. Ohio 300---Desperation Manuscript
9. Ohio 359---Regulators "A" proof
10. Ohio 313---LSOE F & G
11. Ohio 444---Danse Macabre F & G (Everest House)

14. Ohio 302---Colorado Kid pre-publication materials in folder
15. Ohio 448---DTVI Song of Susannah F &G

Now I know who got "my" JOYLAND proof!
Good for you!
I'd trade 'em all to have John back, though.
