Thanks Alec. I think Vanessa is just such an amazing talent. So lucky to have met her, worked with her and become a caretaker of the paintings.Originally Posted by Alec

Wanted: Human skin edition of The Book of the Dead. Will accept PC copy.
Great slipcases, well reflecting the dust jackets' aesthetic.
It seems I'm miles above the surface of the Earth
I can see across the whole of London and beyond
Certainly someone went to great lengths to reflect what is inside, from the exterior.
And This is Letter Z...
I love this book. Skeleton Crew Lettered looks amazing.
Nobody likes a clown at midnight
Such beauty!
Wanted list:
Ubris
I could quite happily have one of those on my shelf. Think they just look amazing. Very happy with my numbered though.

Thank you to David for reposting the Lettered Skeleton Crew and for the comments.
Always makes me realize how time goes so quickly, when you recollect how long ago you purchased some items!
Just a quick update for Alec as he has received his PS Publishing Lettered Dead Zone...
I'll leave it to Alec to comment on the details.
"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King

I love it! The signature pages appear to each have their own artwork. Curious to see if they rotated the art work in the book for each signature page. Absolutely brilliant! Thanks for posting!
Very nice DEAD ZONE.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

I know you get what you get, but King's signature in felt pen is undesirable.
Undesirable, I agree.
Though as it seems increasingly difficult to obtain a signature, before his signing completely dries up, undesirable appears better than a blank.
It is 2am and I couldn't sleep. This is AMAZING.And I have saved the best till last... This needs no words.
And Finally, the picture that makes this so special...
What is a felt pen?

I wonder why the change? I mean it's not like a ball point is that hard to get a hold of.
But back to that first Salems', simply amazing Alec.

Thank you Mike.
Yes, difficult to understand why a sharpie seems to be favorite. Nonetheless I am sure the signer would come out with some explanation, albeit utter rubbish.
Perhaps because the sheet is semi gloss.
I don't want this to drift way off course, but those are the PS lettered right? I think there are others out there.... I think. Were they signed in the same way? Were the other sheets
the same material?

The last 4 or 5 PS lettered editions were signed in felt pen.
Thinner, and Carrie were inkpen signed.
Two new additions to Alec's Tolkien collection. Beautiful leather limited editions in the classic binding style.
The Hobbit is limited to 500, the first 100 signed by his, now deceased, son Christopher.
The Silmarillion was proposed as 1,000 copies but it is highly likely only a third were printed. Christopher did sign the first 100 copies by number, though Alec mentioned he had only ever seen one. Most likely all sat in collections.

Certainly something to crow about!
