Had this for a little while now, and finally had a chance to post...
The Shining - Folio Society S/L of 110
Great acquisition. Tough to find.
Big congrats on the Harris! It is truly a beautiful book and the price they had for it during the sale was great. Like most people, when it first came out I was skeptical of the$1250$1500 price tag, so despite Sub Press's note that it was "one of the finest books" they ever produced I stayed away. Fortunately for me, it was a slow seller precisely because of the hefty price tag, and when they had a 50% off all stock sale a while later, I was very surprised that it wasn't excluded! I ordered it, expecting to be rejected, but lo and behold it came later that week.
It's definitely among the most beautiful books I own - I love the leather inlay on the traycase and the book itself is just marvelous. I'm very happy that someone here snagged it! It made it maybe 2 mins longer than most books (it was still for sale after I completed my first order), I think again because it was the most expensive one on the list and you really have to see it before you get a sense of how awesome it is.
And the Simmons are also very nice of course
Thanks, Lotuz! I think the list price was actually $1500 - the PC sale price was $750. You did well to pick up a true lettered for that price. And yes the book is lovely.
I think one reason I was able to get it was not just the high price, but they had multiple PC copies. It was still listed as available after I completed my order.
It's the only way I could own this edition, that's for sure.

WOW! Awesome P&Js on this page!
"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
