    Anyone ever gotten their sealed limited with something like this? I just received LSOE 1175 from Betts, unwrapped it and was checking eveything out when this page randomly opened up. Kinda wondering who's prints they are.

    (Am I the only one that thinks certain books have the most amazing smell? LSOE just "sends me somewhere"...)

    LSOE 1175 "printed"

    That would be an odd question. But.
    Let's say that you were close with a famous writer. Say Stephen King. Which I am not.

    If you were to read early versions of his books, wouldn't it be a shame to just keep digital files?
    Wouldnt it be nice to get them printed somehow, once the final book has been released?
    What would you do with previous versions?

    I personnally love lulu.com to print personal copies of books (I used that for printing myself a copy of "The Plant")



    Maybe Bev Vincent has an input, given he co-edited a book?
    Did you do anything with previous versions, if you have any?

    You would need permission to print someone else's copyrighted work in the US. Otherwise it is a copyright violation. If you only had one book printed for yourself, it might go unnoticed/unremarked though.

    Thanks for the reply Br!an
    I didnt explicitly said it, but I did indeed meant that it would be for personal use. Doing otherwise would seem really stupid and a big break of trust.

    But what would you do? Print files individually? Lose pages? More "looking like a book" type printing?
    Trying to make a nice project out of it?
    Forget it and just keep the digital files?

    Default Desperately looking for "On The Shining and Other Perpetrations" in Whispers 1982

    Hello folks,
    I am desperately looking for King's essay "On The Shining and Other Perpetrations" which was published in the Special SK Issue of the magazine Whispers in 1982. I am currently writing a piece about King's relationship with Kubrick's version of The Shining for an academic journal and I can't find this essay anywhere. My deadline is approaching and I would be extremely grateful if anyone who own a copy could send me photos of the pages –*nothing fancy, I just need to read the text. I know Whispers is extremely rare and a valuable collector's item, but I couldn't find anyone anywhere who has a copy. Maybe I'll be lucky here? My email is nessuno2001@gmail.com. Many many thanks!
    Best,
    Filippo

    EDIT: Many thanks to herbertwest who sent me a transcription! And to Juliana K for reaching out moments later.

    It might be the Guild Publishing book club one. Does it have GP at the bottom of the spine?

    MacDonald has released a few books in hardcover format, with the same covers as the Futura paperbacks. I owned them some time ago but sold them again. Pretty hard to find.

    No, Macdonald at the bottom of the spine.

    Thank you Roog, that's very interesting. Do they hold any value? Also do you know the other titles they have released in that format?
    Thank you

    No idea about value, i paid like $20 bucks for one of those hardcovers.
    I only know of these titles in MacDonald hardcover:
    Skeleton Crew 0-356-10816-3
    Different Seasons 0-356-08678-X
    Danse Macabre
    Eyes of the Dragon

    Might be more out there.

    Question about this Desperation S/L
    https://www.ebay.com/itm/DESPERATION...8AAOSwPeReyFqP

    Why is it dark blue? Is it just the lighting?
    Do they all have the printing error/ errata slip?

    Probably just the lighting. All of the S/L editions should have the errata sheet.

    Does anyone here collect the different variants of the books that were printed at multiple printers? I'm really torn about whether or not to bother. On the one hand, not getting the different variants seems like having a penny collection with only Denver pennies. On the other hand, pennies are small…

    EYES OF THE DRAGON for sure.
    I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

    Is there something special about the differences for that one?
