Stephen King Collecting Questions

[vincent]

Your David and Anne inscription is definitely intriguing. If someone else comes to mind, I'll let you know. And I'll include your inscription in my next update of my site, if you don't mind.

That's fine. Is the quality good for your purposes?

Yes this is fine, thanks

Apparently What I know about it: it was printed and given out to management level distributors with Macmillan some time in the fall of 1996. This specific copy has been owned by that distributor since then, just socked away untouched. King signed 75 of these for the reps. Anyone seen before?

Never seen it. If it's truly signed, it is rare indeed.

It’s definitely signed. I’m told this was a very personal gift from King and many kept this. I just wish I seen them. I’m
Awaiting the certificate that comes with it now.

I believe this was discussed sometime back in regards to the reissue of IT in 2017. Speaking of the HC with the white DJ. Was it determined that the lowest number line started with a 2?

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Mine starts with a '3', and I bought it on 7-30-17

What number is it? Ones with number lines starting with 2, 3, etc also have that same statement.

Thanks again, guys. Looking to pick one up and wanted the lowest print available. I thought that maybe some '2's' were issued as well.

Did the PB with the same cover have a '1'?

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Yes, the paperback with the same cover artwork starts with a '1'.
It was published before the hardcover, January 2016 according to the copyright page.

I heard that there are 300 signed copies splitted among the 700 stores!

[surly]

the other day someone posted a picture in one of the Facebook collector groups of a reply letter they received from King's office years back. I don't doubt the legitimacy of the letter, but the signature looked off to me. has it ever been confirmed whether King's secretary occasionally signed on his behalf?

Yes Shirley signed lots of things for him.
