Coming soon. Last minute xmas chores to complete.
Very nice. I"m glad those are starting to show up.
Excellent Whelan drawing, Jerome! Congratulations on your newest, largest purchase!
Is this the "normal" traycased edition? Or the super-duper $5K+ edition?
Guess we'll see when the pix are up...
Beautiful Dark Tower remarque, Jerome. I was mentioning to another collector that there is so much Whelan remarque reproduction in the slipcased edition that I have never seen before. I wonder if those are the new remarques in Knowing Darkness?.
I don't think so. I think Whelan was busy with the new drawings when Jerad's book went to press. Time will tell though.
Mine was not 5K. It is the traycased edition-1.5K available now, with a tipped in 1/50 Michael Whelan art pieces.
I haven't even opened the book, but I'm happy the original piece is separate. I can frame the drawing and look at it every day, without fear of "wearing the book out".
The Whelan, Dameron, and ,Maitz remarques are all fabulous, but difficult to share-they're enclosed in a book.
I just need to figure out the best look for the frame job.
VERY nice Jerome !!
See some Christmas Wishes DO come true !!

Just arrived today...along with Knowing Darkness Traycased (the biggest, heaviest book I have ever seen).
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. VERY NICE Jerome! That is way cool. Jerad told me mine would probably arrive next week. Originally, I had asked Jerad and Michael to have Michael do a Father Callahan sketch, but he already did one for me. Yikes, I hope I don't get a second one.
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
Jerome, how did Jerad ship? UPS, FedEx...?
Karl
My slipcased copy came USPS, Media Mail. I haven't gotten my traycased copy yet.

He shipped USPS. It was a massive package. Box inside a box inside a box inside a box.
The outside was pretty well crushed (USPS handlers upset at the size/weight tossed it), but the damage doesn't seem to have transferred to the inside.
Merry Christmas everyone!!!
You all might remember one of the best Christmas gifts I ever got last year...an Orange Plume Proof Gunslinger! This behind-the-back deal was brokered by our own carlosdetweiller (Bob) through Nerak (Karen) to my wife. That was an AMAZING gift.
And then we come to this year.
A little background story. For mr 50th birthday in September, my 9-year-old daughter Sage got me a stuffed bear from Build-a-Bear, which she names Stephen King and recorded a message that said "You're the best daddy in the whole wide world." Sweet, yes?
Well for Christmas, she "stole" Stephen King back and with a little help from my wife, made a costume for my Stephen King bear. Any guesses???? Yes, she made a Father Callahan outfit to go with my painting by Michael Whelan as the new Father Callahan in SK's Discordia project. WHAT A GIFT! AND WHAT A FAMILY I HAVE! On the inside of the book, she even transcribed the actual first two sentences of Salem's Lot.
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
That's a GREAT gift! Congratulations!

Ok. Received these last days:
And today, at 1:30am and prior departing to a friend's house to celebrate, I opened the gift Mark Stutzman sent me. Anything I could say wouldn't make justice to it...
It's the best remarque I ever got!
