I am not sure. Like I said, my aunt was close to the front of the line. So maybe they did run out.

I think he signed a few hundred books(maybe 800?) at that event. I think mine was in the 70's.

Thanks Merlin. I tried at the website but I was lazy and missed the opening bell so to speak. Then I tried the lottery and did not win. When I got the book from my aunt it was a nice surprise. So I am really happy that I was able to get one of these. I already started The Waste Lands so I will not get to this for a bit. Who knows, maybe if there are Dr.Sleep signed books I will get lucky there too.
I just took a peak at your collection. Very impressive. I hope to start on the dedicated limited books after I get the last two first ed's that I need.

Very nice Mike. I especially like that card too. Have to keep an eye out for that item.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.
And the people bowed and prayed, to the cell phone god they made...
I am sure every bit of extra stuff, cards, pics etc... Helps to add to the item being legit over the long haul so I am glad that I got one as well.

Been away, but now I am back . Really nothing new on the collection front as other things have taken precedence, but I hope to get back into it soon. But, I am in deep into the DT. I about 3/4 through Wizard and Glass(first book as the signed Wizard is in 2 volumes). I have to admit that I feel like I am running in mud here. I think I just have to push through this section and hope the next volume and books after this one pick up. Plus I am excited about Dr. Sleep. Anyway, I may be popping back in now and again more often.
Bought a regular copy of Dr. Sleep. I went in the back entrance(street entrance) of my B&N and they only had one copy out, the display copy so I bought that one. Obviously in great shape. Not a special ed or anything but at least the collection keeps growing .

Thanks. It's a slow process but no matter if the book is a new one and not a special one, I still think it's a fun process. And there is nothing like getting back into the game, which I am now.

Yeah congrats Mike. I agree, no matter the edition - it's always fun adding a book to the collection.
Now I just have to decide if I want to try and finish my first ed set, or start on some of the limited ed, that are out there. HMMMM.....

I could not help my self. I ordered the "Gift ed" of The Shinning(1 of 1500) and the "Anniversary ed" of Christine(1 of 750) from Subterranean Press. I know they are not signed but The Shinning looks cool and Christine is the very first King book I ever read. I hope this publishing company is a good one. I never ordered from them before. The Shinning should be out in Nov and Christine says "out later this year". I shouldn't be worried that Christine doesn't have a date yet right? Have other people ordered stuff with no given release date?

You'll be fine with both publishers, Mike. I've bought books from both publishers in the past and I have both these books on order too, and Christine is supposed to be shipping this week! Congratulations on the new orders.
Thanks. I just wanted to make sure. I wonder if they ship by order of where you are in the line. I am pretty far back probably so even though I just ordered today, the likely hood of me getting it next week is remote. But as long as I get them, I will be happy. Something a bit different to add to the collection. I know think that even though they are not signed, it's still cool to add them to a collection.

Just talked to Sub Press and they said they still had some of the DR. Sleep UK limited ed(1-700), the one with the cat on the front. Again, not a real sig but still somewhat limited and still cool to have. I did contact them asking if they had any left and since it was still listed on the site, they said that they had some left. So, I ordered one of those too. Man coming back to this forum can really be an issue sometimes .

I ordered mine from them, but am still waiting for it to show up.

Well, we shall see. Hopefully it won't be too bad. I remember waiting a long time for Secretary of Dreams vol 1 and the books I ordered from Grant.

Good news.

They did not say if it's just one book, two books, or all three but at least I know they send out emails for me to get the notice. That's a good sign.

So now that I look again, it is probably the Dr.Sleep one. Because I don't think The Shinning or Christine are ready to ship yet.
Yeah!!!

Again, Even though it's still not really signed by him, it it still somewhat limited and a cool one to I have I think.

I am still excited but people can be honest. Am I stupid for just getting these "gift" ed of the books? I mean, should it be S\L or nothing and if I miss it, oh well?
