Nice one....that's the edition I recently read. The next time I'll read CD's edition.

Even us "old guys" learn something new often enough....is what I enjoy A LOT about King collecting....something new comes along that you did not know even existed (though some here may say how could you not?)

Revival LetterPress....now I knew the Lettered edition came in a pretty cool looking box (pictured, white larger box), but what I just discovered is that the regular Gift edition....well it seems a few were sent in boxes (see picture below) but am told that there were some production problems so most Gift Editions were sent without the box....I've seen literally a hundred+ Gift Editions for sale, but never did I see that LetterPress initially did a box for these, so I bought this one, just for the box!

Simply beautiful!

Happy feet on this one

Those were for my Patreon supporters on the higher levels who receive everything LPP does. I think I might also have sent a few boxes out to regular collectors who asked for one since I didn’t need the spares.

I did not actually ship in these boxes because there was a really strong ink smell that wouldn't dissipate, not even with a week of "sunning" them outside on my back patio. Instead, I bubble bagged the boxes and included them with the book in a larger package. I wanted the supporters to get the box, but I didn't want to risk any scent transfer to the books!

That experience is why the Lettered Edition shipping box art is very simple.

Hope this helps!

Somebody got the deal of a lifetime back in May. I was looking through sold items on eBay today and noticed this listing

Spoiler:

The description doesn't mention this being a S/L Gunslinger, but the title says 'Ltd. #5,' and it is specifically mentioned in the listing that 'all images are of product for sale'

Spoiler:

And if you look closely at the only photo in the listing, you can see a sliver of the top edge of the hardcover, and the cloth ain't red

Spoiler:

And the buyer, I imagine a bit tongue-in-cheek, left positive feedback indicating that the item was 'exactly as described'

Spoiler:

So somebody bought S/L Gunslinger #5 for 500 dollars on eBay back in May. Absolutely crazy, especially considering another S/L Gunslinger sold for somewhere in the 2K vicinity recently as well. And on a related subject, somebody can update the Dark Tower set thread, apparently complete set #5 was owned by Glenn Lord, but it's incomplete now.

WOW.

Interesting Anthony.
There was a discussion since then on this forum, as to the possibility of the Number 5 actually being the Letter ‘S’.

Oh ya, I remember that discussion. So the buyer is a member, I’m glad to hear it.

I did at one stage believe that this may have been Letter ‘S’.
However as Anthony has pointed out it came from Glenn Lord’s collection who owned set No.5. Thereby making my assumption incorrect.

[webstar1000]

I wonder when all the members will
Come out to call him down to the lowest for that Awesome deal?

How petulant of me. Thanks for the rep! I loved it Perhaps you could voice your opinion publicly and find Colin's post and send him some nice mojo to! I for one will give him a congrats on just what this thread is about... "That Awesome Deal". I could care less about the rep.. cause all it does is remind me of my awesome deal! So thank you

Not sure if this counts, but I just got a great deal on this new bookshelf. It’s my first ‘grown up’ bookshelf and looks so so much better than my ole Walmart ones. This is how books were meant to be displayed. Lovin it!
