I picked up this gem this morning, but I think it is going in MY personal collection:
MOTH
Book Description: The Blanket Conspiracy, Orono, Maine, 1970. Stiff Paper Wrappers. Book Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. Boldly signed three times by Stephen King. Stiff paper wrappers. Unpaginated. Author's first book appearance. The first appearance of three poems by Stephen King, predating any commercial printing of his work. Moth was an anthology which evolved out of a poetry seminar at the University of Maine, where King was a student at the time. Other contributers include Tabitha Spruce, who not long after married Stephen to become Tabitha King. (In his autobiographical book, On Writing, King writes of falling in love with Tabitha during this poetry workshop-he also describes the workshop at some length in the book.) Another contributor was Michael Alpert, who later worked with King as co-founder of Philtrum Press, where he designed and composed the type for one of the rarest of King's publications, The Plant, and the limited editions of The Eyes of the Dragon, and Six Stories. The most important poem by King in Moth is the first: "The Dark Man," the genesis of his sprawling epic, The Dark Tower. The second poem is titled "Donovan's Brain," inspired by the book and movie of the same name. King has signed his name, with a flair, in black ink, by each of the three poems of his in this issue; each poem is on a separate page. In addition, this copy is signed "Tabitha King" below one of her poems, in red ink. This copy is also signed in black ink by Michael Alpert. Near Fine. Signed by Author.
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.
Congrats Dave. Saw that one on Abe.
Thanks...and I was able to negotiate down in price too....my policy is NEVER pay the ABE.com price...I find sellers nearly always willing to negotiate off line.

I have a copy but it is not signed...VERY nice addition!!
Great new addition, David. Well done.
Re: Signed Moth
Nice new acquisition David. Are King's signatures recent or do they look to be older? Are they dated?
Congrats on the new addition, and even better you were able to negotiate a better price.
nice grab david... I won't ask how much you paid for it... but how much was it "Listed" for?
I have a fine copy that is signed by "Tabitha King" (but alas, not stephen) - wouldn't mind finding one signed Tabitha Spruce.
Bob-Great new addition, David. Well done.

not pricing wrong if you want to sale in 90 seconds... but I'm thinking that someone might have seen and gotten a good deal
You never know. Maybe they wouldn't have sold or would've taken longer if it were higher. If you're satisfied with the profit margin - the price is right.not pricing wrong if you want to sale in 90 seconds... but I'm thinking that someone might have seen and gotten a good deal
personally, I think you've been underpricing most of your lettered editions...just saying.
if it sales in 90 seconds... you've never given yourself a chance to see what it would really sale for...
Underpriced if you are looking to make as much profit as possible, which is what most businesses are about.
If your more about making buyers very happy and not concerned about profit margins... then your definitely achieving that goal.
