That's nice!
I am not keen of the type (is it the usual one for King in the USA? dont think so), and i doubt that they'll put THE GUNSLINGER but.. otherwise, it is a VERY GOOD cover!
I personnally would quite like see this artwork as the official cover :

The first thing that came to mind was that this sounds like an episode of Scooby Doo. Crazy antics and hilarity ensue.
I hope to heaven that any signed limited edition is handled by an independent publisher who knows what they are doing and let the big publishers stick to the mass markets.
@ Patrick for the Scooby Doo idea:
My first thought was that amusement parks need at least one clown. It'd be nice to see a cameo by a certain clown.

Joyland to be published under the Hard Case Crime imprint in June 2013:

A new novel by Stephen King, Joyland, is to be published by Titan Books imprint Hard Case Crime in June 2013.
The book will be released as a paperback first, with e-book to follow at a later date. King said: "I loved the paperbacks I grew up with as a kid, and for that reason, we're going to hold off on e-publishing this one for the time being. Joyland will be coming out in paperback, and folks who want to read it will have to buy the actual book."
The title, set in a small-town North Carolina amusement park in 1973, tells the story of the summer in which college student Devin Jones comes to work as a carny and confronts the legacy of a vicious murder, the fate of a dying child, and the ways both will change his life forever.
Hard Case Crime editor Charles Ardai bought world rights in the title, with King's novel The Colorado Kid previously released under the imprint. The deal does not affect King's relationship with his usual UK publisher, Hodder.
Ardai said: "Joyland is a breathtaking, beautiful, heartbreaking book. It's a whodunit, it's a carny novel, it's a story about growing up and growing old, and about those who don't get to do either because death comes for them before their time.
"Even the most hardboiled readers will find themselves moved. When I finished it, I sent a note saying: 'Goddamn it, Steve, you made me cry.'"

I wonder if there will be a S/L?
Well the last Hard Case Crime novel, the Colorado Kid had a set of S/L come out after teh original paperback release! Just thinking!!!!
DT Spoiler - Enter at your own risk!
Spoiler:
What Bob says. I'm looking forward to it, it sounds like a GREAT story.
I will buy it because it is not published by Scribner.
Hard Case got King to do the Fifty to One S/L. Could be Subterranean, Could be PS Publishing, could beSpoiler:
I think that in the catalog it should be specified that this is not the actual bookcover...

While I am eager for the story, the fact that Hard Case is doing it doesn't really entice me as regards a "Collectible". Don't get me wrong they did a nice job with TCK, but it just wasn't......my cup of tea? No, WOW factor I guess. I'll of course buy it though!!!
