King vetoed it
"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
Thanks for the kind comments everyone! I never thought the day would come when I'd sell a couple 'Salem's S/L's & not use the money for more of the same title, I know that sounds weird maybe but my 'Salem's collection is my P&J. I'll share some more info from the prospectus when I have a little time, its been way to hectic here in Colorado!
Now that's badass, great effort to get that done. I'm impressed. Great piece.
There are a few comments on the first page of this thread may answer your question.
geez, thanks. It is my most prized art piece just cause of the storyNow that's badass, great effort to get that done. I'm impressed. Great piece.

Hello all. I'm a member; but I'm very private and a bit shy, so I often "lurk" (I hate that term-it reads like I'm up to no good) about on this site. Although I enjoy and appreciate thedarktower.org, I seldom post anything. However, after viewing this thread, I felt moved to make the following profound statement: WOW!
Don't be shy! The more that post, the merrier, and the more we all gain!

Don't ever be shy about being a "Lurker". Part of our membership requirement for Calvins Corner, you have to be deviant. Your lurking habit means you fit in very well. Welcome. Look forward to hearing more about your collection, likes, and dislikes.

I'm the caretaker of Room 217..............I've always been the caretaker of Room 217
I am considering these next 3 items as on of a kind.....the first is Michael Whelan's updated Father Callahan image using me as his model (I posed in Michael's studio in April 2009). This image is used in Stephen King's website game "Discordia." Second image is me as Father Callahan, art done by Ned Dameron and third image is Father Callahan (me again) done by Glenn Chadbourne.
wondering if I could get Whelan to use me to model for pennywise.... I have the hair for it... at least if he catches me in the morning.
Ockhamistic, I second what the others have said. I also "lurked" for a while in the early days but very soon became somewhat addicted to the site. Now posting new acquisitions and having discussions with other members is one of the highlights of my day! This is a phenomenal community. It's good to have you out of the shadows. Welcome!
I lurk in tons of threads (this one included) I don't have the knowledge of King works as many of the other folks here do, but love to learn and see all the cool goodies.

I think I have posted most of my items in my collection thread and in another thread called something like "Top 10 King collectibles" or something like that.

He stated, "You should probably plan to replace it soon".
