Just got a signed/inscribed 1st of Firestarter yesterday.



The book itself is in Near Fine condition I would say, and I like that the inscription is dated pretty close to the publication date.

I think I got a pretty good deal at $120 shipped.

[Randall Flagg]

Great price. Congratulations on a nice aquisition.

No picture, but my latest acquisition is a Gunslinger Born #5 Sketch Variant. This was the only piece missing in my collection - I mean all editions, all variants, all sketch variants, the Daily Bugle the Marvel Previews, the Door Poster, the Omnibus hardcover collection, the Sketch Book, the Guidebook and the postcards!

I will say here and now that I am not going to collect the variants and sketch variants for The Long Road Home. This got just too costly!

I did get a few good deals on the Sketch Variants - unfortunatley I paid $75 for #1, and $50 for #'s 2-3; Got #4 for $35; #5 for $22, #6 for $15 and #7 for $15. That's a lot of cashola for (7) 48 page comics!

Well I'm not real happy the signature isn't on the title page, but I'll take it, a signed Duma Key.

[tippy4]

I was able to get a few signed copies of this book, and only ONE of them was signed on the title page (which is the one I kept for myself).

Unfortunately, it was also the one in the worst condition, but I am with you...I prefer 'em signed on the title page!

See my 02/16/08 post in this thread for a picture.

You know, in looking at your picture it looks like there is a "ghost" of a signature above the one that we can clearly see (beneath the Scribner insignia).

Almost looks like it is signed on the next page as well.

You sure your book is not double-signed?????

Oh yeah, I can see it - that would be quite a coup......

[tippy4]

I believe they are two different signatures.

The loop crosses the "S" quite high on the visible signature, and significantly lower on the "ghost" signature.

[wizardsrainbow]

Damn, your eyes are good! You must eat a lot of carrots!

[Cutter]

I can sorta see what you guys are talking about, but I agree with Wiz you guys have some good eyes. I'll check when I get home, but I don't think it's double signed. It must be something weird with the camera reflection or something. I'll post what I find.

[CRinVA]

One item closer to getting a complete set of First Editions.

The Shining

Now all I have left is the following:

• Salem's Lot
• Night Shift
• Thinner
• The Gunslinger
• Rage
• The Running Man
• Roadwork
• The Long Walk

Nope. That is no reflection

The top signature is different from the bottom one.

You, my friend have a double-signed book (lucky bastard).

I owe you a Coke if that is not the case!

Yeah, both the 1st/1st Duma Key I ended up with and the 1st/3rd my friend got from the Sarasota Barnes & Noble were signed on the colophon page as well. I'm still okay with that, since they cost retail less 30%! 8)


I guess when he is in any particular store, it's almost a crapshoot where he signs. I have some other books of his signed on the title page (like Lisey's Story) and some signed on the blank front page. I even recently got a 1st printing of It he signed on the cover...

[tippy4]

I actually kept two copies for myself.

One that was signed on the title page and one that was signed on the colophone page.

Same situation with The 2007 Best American Short Stories. I have two copies with each signature on a different page.

Yes, I am a dork.

Well, dork to dork, then, I see nothing wrong with that for a collector!

[Randall Flagg]

Received a signed Duma Key today. Not signed on the title page, nor the best signature, but a signed copy nonetheless.

[tippy4]

That is one handsome looking book!

[Matt]

Congrats Jerome, that looks wonderful.

<--can't wait until his is signed.

[Mr. Rabbit Trick]

Well I don't even have an unsigned Scribner Duma Key yet!

(I've got the Hodder & Stoughton hardback and paperback and the audiobook though)
