click for a larger image of item #33205, Bare Bones. Conversations on Terror with Stephen King Los Angeles/Columbia, Underwood-Miller, 1988. The deluxe edition of this compendium of interviews with Stephen King, 1979-1987. Edited by Tim Underwood and Chuck Miller. One of 52 copies of the deluxe edition (of 1152 copies total); this is copy "CC." Half-bound in leather. With the bookplate of contributor Stanley Wiater on the front flyleaf. Wiater has two contributions -- an interview with King on the set of Maximun Overdrive, the first and only film King directed, and a joint interview with King and Peter Straub at the 1979 World Fantasy Convention, in Providence, Rhode Island. Fine. [#033205] SOLD
click for a larger image of item #33023, Cycle of the Werewolf (Westland), Land of Enchantment, (1983). Inscribed by King to his editor at Doubleday, Samuel Vaughan: "For Sam - Thanks for making something that could have been so hard so easy - and so successful. Quite a fall, huh? Your friend, Steve King/ 11/30/83." Vaughan had edited King's Pet Sematary, which had been published on 11/14/83 with a first printing announced as 500,000 copies. Cycle of the Werewolf is a single story by King, issued with illustrations by Berni Wrightson, who had collaborated with King on Creepshow. There was a signed limited edition of 250 copies; the trade edition, this one, had 7500 copies -- a tiny fraction of the numbers for Pet Sematary and King's other trade publications at that time. While the limited edition is scarcer in sheer numbers, our experience is that genuine Stephen King association copies are much rarer than his signed limiteds. Slight corner taps, else fine in a near fine dust jacket with one very small edge chip and some minor edge wear. [#033023] SOLD
NY, Scribner, (2006). Winner of the Bram Stoker Award. With the bookplate of another Bram Stoker Award winning author. Fine in a fine dust jacket. [#030314] SOLD

On the tape, King talks about the novel and reads a preview. Likely listened to, but near fine or better in the publisher's cardstock cassette case. With the card of a Scribner publicity director laid in. [#030298] SOLD

click for a larger image of item #29993, The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon (NY), Scribner, (1999). A novel in which a lost girl channels the strengths (at the time) of Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Tom Gordon for comfort. Signed by King. With the bookplate of horror writer Stanley Wiater on the front pastedown; fine in a fine dust jacket. One of King's scarcest trade editions to find signed, presumably because of the difficult logistics of handling a Stephen King book signing in recent years, due to his extreme popularity. This copy was a gift to attendees at the dinner celebrating King's 25th anniversary as a published writer, which Wiater attended with his wife. A limited edition of this title was published several years later, and a pop-up edition of it was done as well. Signed copies of the trade first edition are exceedingly scarce. [#029993] SOLD

A volume in the Pop Culture Legends series, with an introduction by Leeza Gibbons of Entertainment Tonight. Bookplate of another author on the front flyleaf.

click for a larger image of item #32795, The Voice of the Night Garden City, Doubleday, 1980. One of the dedication copies of this pseudonymous work by the horror/thriller master. Inscribed by Koontz to Mary Ann Prencevic, one of the dedicatees: To Mary Ann, if you'll look ahead to the dedication page, you'll see that my pleasure in having you for a friend is set in cold type for everyone to see. Love, Brian Coffey alias Dean R. Koontz." Koontz is now one of the best-known and best-selling horror and thriller writers after Stephen King, but in 1980 he was much less well-known and had published most of his previous works only in paperback, many of them pseudonymously. This is a relatively early hardcover from Koontz, dating from before the days of his fame and celebrity. Small repaired scuff on the rear pastedown, lower corner bump; near fine in a near fine dust jacket with light wear to the spine extremities. Scarce: dedication copies seldom turn up on the market, especially by so popular an author as Koontz. [#032795] SOLD
