    So pleased you started a collection thread. I’m excited to see the signed UK Lisey’s proof—talk about a rarity in a signed state! Great collection!

    Seeing your editions makes me realise that some of mine are in pretty poor condition.
    Also, I have a Danse Macabre which I thought was a first but the the boards are a cream colour not red. All other info suggests a first. Is that possible?

    Suppose anything is possible, but only ever seen copies looking like the photos above.

    My main focus nowadays is UK Proofs, proof Dust Jackets and UK publisher promotional material. Have multiple copies of some of the following, but still quite a few gaps to fill.

    The Dead Zone UK Proof







    N.B. The ISBN has been covered with a sticker (assume by the publisher)

    The Dark Half UK Proof. Frustrating crease on the back, but otherwise showing the shift that the publisher was making to have the proof more interesting with a pictorial cover.

    The UK partial proof of The Stand Complete and Uncut is fairly thin and not much more than a sampler.

    The UK Full Proof of The Stand Complete and Uncut is a thick heavy book and commonly acknowledged to be limited to 33 copies. A rare beast I'm lucky to be taking care of...

    Gerald's Game UK Proof is during the publishers monochrome phase and pretty dull to look at. The black background is a nightmare for creasing so lucky to have found 2 in decent condition.
