King Books/Items Wanted

[Br!an]

I couldn't tell that was Wrigley Field, but I could certainly tell it was Florida!

Looking for a S/L copy of Blockade Billy.

Don't forget there are two different versions of King's baseball card that was issued with this S/L. The rarer version is him in front of a field, as opposed to the more common stadium in the background. No idea if this difference results in a difference in price between the two however...

Got pictures of both of them?

Thanks !

[Theli]

Do we know how many of each were printed?

here is the original story from Brian (Freeman)

"Many collectors already know that Stephen King autographed his first-ever baseball cards as his way of signing these special editions, which I thought was very cool, but what no one outside a small group knew until now is that there were actually two different baseball cards created for King. Here’s how this unique and unusual collectible item came to be:

After running the baseball card idea by King, who loved it, we hired a local shop to custom-make a uniform and baseball cap for the fictional New Jersey Titans. These items were shipped down to King in Florida and we waited to see what happened. A few weeks later, the results of a photo shoot arrived.
We narrowed the photos down to one image and Kate Freeman Design went to work, creating two versions of the card. The first version used the original photo of King exactly as it was taken. The second version used the same photo of King, only he was photoshopped into a stock photo of Wrigley field. (We didn’t want to use a photo of Fenway because that seemed a little clichéd given King’s well-known affinity for the team, but we did want something that evoked an earlier era of baseball.)

Cool story!!! So, I don't have to burn the card then? LOL

I think Dan may have mentioned less than a third, maybe 25% were the ones in the field...

That is correct.

Now I have to check to see which one I have and try to get the other one too... I'm a baseball card collector too and this is one of my favorite King items!

No, but I have quite a few less desirable McKinley's . I can't change them in (well I could for $500 each), but they will be kept and disposed of.

[Papaseraphim]

Well, good luck finding that page block Jerome. I'm sure the binding job will be awesome.

He's really become "The Mad Binder", but then I don't blame him. He's got an awesome connection!!

Spoiler:

BTW, if you have some really distressed HC and DJ on copies of 1/1 king books, I am looking for another project for next years HF. Feel free to PM. You could be the originating donor for what becomes an amazing piece!!! No promises, but you can't be in it if you don't enter.

Wanted:

• 1970s UK (NEL) paperback 1/1 editions (including the 'open market' ones)
• Signet Firestarter paperback 1/1 edition
• Viking DT II-IV 1/1 HC reissues
• DTI-VIII trade PBs 1/1

Any and all leads/help much appreciated! I know that the DT books aren't hard to find but I don't want to bother every eBay/ABE seller for pics if there's a possibility that one of the members here is looking to sell several or all of them.

I believe DTV-DTVII trade PB's were recently on remainder at Barnes & Noble.

[Papaseraphim]

Unfortunately most of those are later printings. The ones I saw last week were 11th and 15th printings.
