I mean I dont understand why folks are freaking over a possible King signature of an introduction. If that happened and was surprise revealed i sure it would be a bonus to every numbered rights holder. I would think that It would not follow the path of Misery. It is not a Stephen King S/N LE of one of his own books.

I guess if they dont have a number I can understand the angst.

I love King. I love McCarthy. The thought of King writing an intro to Blood Meridian is completely inappropriate and wouldn't make sense to me at all. Again - I LOVE both authors, but no one will ever put McCarthy and King in the same classification. Ever.

People that would be more in line for an introduction to this book would be Marilynne Robinson, Margaret Atwood, Alice Munroe, Salman Rushdie, or J.M. Coetzee. Even Barbara Kingsolver is appropriate.

Again, I really don't care who writes the intro. It would just be a surprise that's all. I don't buy the books because of the sigs. I buy the books because they are all books that interest
me and Paul has done outstanding jobs with all the books I have bought so far. TBH, my only experience with McCarthy are the movies The Road and No Country for old Men.
Some of the best movies I have ever seen. I am looking forward to reading McCarthy though.

Trust me, my hope was not based on anything appropriate.

The only real qualifier would be the fact that King has stated several times that Blood Meridian is in his Top Ten List of greatest books of all time.

Since you mentioned Coetzee, I'd love to see a nice edition of 'Waiting for the Barbarians', was hoping the recent movie would have generated some more interest in the title.

I was going to make a “that was me in high school” joke, but...that never really went away.

Same.

Is there anybody here would think about putting a re-marque in a numbered version? Or would you guys only do that in an AE.

I have a remarque in my #'d edition of HORNS (also the portfolio). Also plan on remarques in my #'d editions of SEED, THE EXORCIST, THE WOLFEN, and (god willing) BLOOD MERIDIAN.

Just depends on your preference.

[MikeDuke]

Thanks.
You think there will be one for The Exorcist? The Wolfen would be my first one that I get. It's too late for Seed though since I already have it. But an Exorcist might be cool also. And maybe BM. Of course
it's all price dependent.

I've been in touch with the artist of Excorist and he's doing it. Not sure what you mean by it's too late for Seed, I'm sure the artist is still doing work; if you reach out to the artists they will quote you prices. The problem is generally shipping. I paid about $250 for shipping alone to get my HORNS remarque done. The Exorcist artist is in Spain, so that's going to be pricey, also. Something like this is not for the budget conscious.

[MikeDuke]

Yea. You're probably right. I may not do them then. I have a quote for The Wolfen but that is minus shipping. Maybe this is not for me.

[Noxus35]

Exciting, can't wait for that e-mail to arrive. 😬

MIke Dolce will do the Remarque for you. If you want her info, let me know. Ill give ya the contact and let her know to hook you up

[Dolan]

What an accomplishment for the Suntup team! Got my copy!

[MikeDuke]

Thanks Kris. That would be great. Hopefully I can afford the re-marque and shipping. Same with The Exorcist. I just have a feeling that the artwork and shipping
will be out of my league. But I do appreciate your assistance .

[MikeDuke]

Yea, that looks awesome for the numbered.

[herbertwest]

I love the blood-covered styles in the lettered !

[Hunchback Jack]

That numbered edition looks stunning. Love the binding. And letterpress? Sign me up.

[MikeDuke]

Yea, Soon as I got the email it was in my cart.

[CyberGhostface]

Whelp this is by far the most money I have ever spent on anything like this period.
