Book Collection: ur2ndbiggestfan

[bdwyer19]

Since I have 58 pages of photos in Photobucket and I am too lazy to transfer them I will start over extremely slowly. I decided, for no particular reason to take a picture of all my ITs. I am missing the UK proof, the button that says IT IS HERE and probably a few other editions:

Looks great! No Funko Pop figures to round out the collection???

[webstar1000]

Gotta ask... I have everything there in mine... BUT I want to ask ya:
1) The German paperback ES... how much are those? That is considered the 1st edition by many yes?
2) You have a two paperbacks the same.. left side.. those are just doubles 1st's right?
3) Being an IT guy like me... do you consider the new releases a must have?

1. What is a Funko Pop Figure?

2. I'm not sure, but I think the German paperback ES is not that rare or expensive. The hardcover is the one to accidentally put in your backpack when visiting a Stephen King fan's library. (Along with NEBEL which I don't have but wish I did)

3. Yes, they are doubles. I wish I had bought two of everything way back then, but the only reason I have two IT paperbacks is because the first one I bought had a slight inward spine curvature, as had just about every copy I saw wherever I went.

4. I sorta kinda can't help myself when I see a new King 1st, IT or otherwise, so I guess the answer is yes.

Went to Wal-Mart today and found these books. The IT is a 3rd numberline.

WOW...you've got some nice ITs...

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

IT never stops!

[CyberGhostface]

I really love the paperback with Tim Curry on it. That was the version I first read It as. It eventually fell apart and I ended up getting the clown skull cover which IMO isn't as cool.

Tom Swift?

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

I have to put them someplace. From my (very recent) childhood.

In case you haven't heard yet, this is the only printing of this hardcover edition. They most likely goofed it up. I've got the response from customer service in one of the threads around here.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Yes, that's why I decided to buy it after all. Your information was very helpful. I'm glad I passed on the ones at Barnes & Noble because the copy I found at Wall-Mart was in much better condition, even though it cost a few dollars more. Hmm, For a Few Dollars More, sounds like a good title for a movie about a book collector/gunslinger who goes after 1st editions with a six-gun and a smile.

With all the new editions coming out, I have to move almost every single King hardcover to put them in their rightful, proper places. So I may as well take pictures as I go since all the Photobuckets are not available. I took all the Carries out first and just threw them on the floor. I can't match even a single lottery number, but the books, against all odds, fell to the ground in perfect order:

[Roog]

Nice! Is there a rule for which Carrie editions you do collect and which you don't collect?

[zelig]

No good. I don't see any pigs blood.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

No rule, just what's available, if I find out about it in time, if I have enough money at the time, or what's offered to me at the time.
I have a question - who wants to see pig's blood anyway? The stains are just so hard to get out.

Here are my 'Salem's Lots. I'd like to move there, it seems like a place I could really sink my teeth into for a living (even though, technically, I'd be dead):

[zelig]

Impressive. Love the paperback. The one in the middle.

[TravelinJack]

Awesome! What's the one above the CD AE? I don't recall ever seeing that edition. Cover looks great, eerie.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

The one in the middle?

The eerie 'Salem's Lot is the Hodder & Stoughton ILLUSTRATED 'SALEM'S LOT.

Funny thing: there is a Bon Jovi album which has the same cover picture.

I actually like the Bon Jovi print better!

The last with the new books, the PS Publishing NIGHT SHIFTS. I was so mad I threw the RAGEs in too.

[Roog]

And even a glimpse of he who walks behind the rows.

Man, I'm loving these group shots. Awesome. The page block of your UK Carrie 1st looks so white, for that edition!
