Ha, almost there on that one!

Excellent work from CD on this today. I'm just relieved I wasn't on holiday abroad for this one like I was when IT was announced!!

[Jimimck]

Wow, sold out in five hours. Awesome.

Excellent work from CD on this today. I'm just relieved I wasn't on holiday abroad for this one like I was when IT was announced!!

This was no fun today! No website crashing, darktower hacking, stress of not forgetting the date of the announcement. I just logged in and ordered the book just like every other book.

I need more stress and actions and complaining and.... That is half the fun of collecting SK books. Better luck next time CD.

I'm the one that was traveling today. My first missed S/L since.......wow.....I can't remember that far back.

Oh we'll, I will be one of those in the second hand market looking. Silly me, having to travel to make money.

Missed this, logged on tonight to see my emails, missed it.

Congratulations CD, this will no doubt be a fantastic addition to anyone's collection. The artwork looks amazing.

Going to go hunting for a waiting list! If not GE.

[jhanic]

Congratulations, Brian, Dan, Mindy and whomever! A job VERY well done.

Crap! I didn't even get the notice until they were gone! Congrats to the rest of you that got a copy.

I was at school when the e-mail went out so missed out on buying a S/L. Oh well. Maybe I'll find one secondhand when its published (and when I actually have money).

Not a fan of the cover art overall, but like the S/L edition art best (and no comic art!).

[Bloodletting Press]

I just got confirmation from Sub Press that 644 was mine so fingers crossed it's available from CD!

BTW - like I said in the other thread, I like the art for the gift and limited but the fonts don't do anything for me. I'm a graphic designer and maybe that makes me more picky?

So am I Becca and I agree. (You should be more picky, you have the professional experience to back up your opinion!)

I rarely like small press dust jackets because the typography almost always feels amateurish.
The limited is probably the best of the bunch, but the '90s grunge font for the title does take it down a notch. The gift edition is the worst one in my opinion, the standard Photoshop bevel effect on King's name kills me.

I ordered the S/L, but my credit card is going to hate me for a couple of months.

Cemetery Dance always does a wonderful job on their titles. I think their design work is the best in the business. Kate Freeman's layouts are a work of art!

Hi Brian, can you tell me if the only difference between the Subterranean Press Slipcased Gift Edition for the Shining and the Cemetery Dance Slipcased Gift Edition for the Shining is going to be the slipcase? Or is there something else?

Thanks, Chuck

Same here. I'm pretty disappointed that CD didn't give us any sort of heads up to expect this. Sad ://

There's no difference between that and the SP version. CD sometimes releases books from other publishers.

We did try to drop a few hints here and there over the last week or so, but there is no perfect way to announce a King signed Limited Edition so that absolutely no one misses out -- unless you're able to publish 1000 or 1250 copies, which would be great.

Those who missed out on a signed edition should email Mindy at order@cemeterydance.com ASAP about the waiting list because we're not going to have an official one this time, just an unofficial one she keeps in her email, and there are *always* cancellations. There will probably be a few tomorrow when spouses check the credit card balance online!

Yep, we're just getting a few copies of the SP edition of The Shining.

Looks like CD selling the SP edition. It's not a CD edition however.

[Coulrophobia]

Congratulations Brian and Cemetery Dance on another successful book release. All the hard work, and artist vision translates into not just a book for us collectors. It translates into a cherished work of art that will be an honor to own for years to come.

[TCCBodhi]

Anyone have personal experience with Miskatonic Books (Larry)? It's great that he has a couple of copies for those like me that didn't get the hint.

<Edit> Several recommendations for Larry @ Miskatonic, so the question has been answered!
