The only one of the Collectors Editions I have is of 'Salem's Lot - signed by both King and Barker.
This collecting stuff is a sickness! ~Patrick
Well, that makes me happy to hear. I didn't know that...though it's more valuable to me. It was a gift.
wizard and glass FIRST EDITION PAPERBACK ORIGINAL(UK)
I'm not a collector as such so I was wondering what sort of things I should be looking for?
This is going to the book stall at a local market as I have the DT books with the covers I like already. Not sure what else I am supposed to mention
Savvy, I'm not sure just what you're asking. Are you looking for the points to identify a first/first of DTIV or what?
John
Sorry John
I have no idea tbh, I just wondered whether it would be worth anything to anyone who collects these if not I'm happy to give it to the book stall
I think it is just a first edition? it has the numbers 10-1 if that helps
I'll have to dig my copy out. If I remember correctly, the true first/first of the UK DTIV is a trade-sized paperback, published by Sphere (?), and has "French flaps" on the cover. This means that there are fold-out extensions on the front and back covers. I don't remember the price. A full numberline is a plus for sure.
John
Ah ok, it does have the flappy things with illustrations on the inside. It says it is published by Hodder and Stoughton
Thank you for taking time to look
There are lots for sale on ebay for £0.99
I don't do ebay so I wouldn't have known
Has the story The Furnace been published as a finished story?
As far as I know, only on line. Here is the complete story and list of student contributors that completed Kings paragraph:

I am not so sure that it havent been published. Because a few months back i saw on abebooks a description of a magazine (i think) that was listing "the furnace" (i am pretty sure there was a mistake in the name of the story... like funrace)
I did post about it at the time :
http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/...0&postcount=34
But i didnt write or give the title of the mag though... I am sure that i did send it to someone, but i recently cleared my sent mails...
the best would be to ask to the website...

I've got a copy at home. I'll see if I can locate it when I get off work and I'll post scans.

To set the record straight about the Stephen King Collectors Series talked about a few posts ago:
I must have read Justin Brooks' Bibliography wrong when I responded to the question. He does, indeed, have Ken Follett as the author of the Introduction to The Shining.

..
Tommy's job was to get wood for the fire from the box at the bottom of the cellar stairs. His mother said he wouldn't be afraid of the cellar when he got older, but now he was ten, and he hated it more than ever.
Tommy was sure something was behind the furnace. He sometimes thought he could hear it breathing back there, and he knew it was watching him. Then one day when Tommy was getting the wood, the door at the top of the stairs swung shut and the cellar light went out.
