Salem’s Lot: The Deluxe Special Edition

[Brian861]

Oh, man...to Remarque or not to Remarque? I passed on getting a Remarque for the Carrie Portfolio because money was tight and I was rather iffy on getting the art portfolios at all and I knew that if I got a Remarque for the Carrie Portfolio, I would want/need to get them for the whole set making the whole Doubleday set a lot more expensive than I had planned on. That being said, still kinda tempted to get one for Salem's Lot...

Ditto!

For those who missed the news a while back, we are producing a signed Limited Edition Artwork Portfolio for 'SALEM'S LOT.

In addition to the artwork from the book, we're working with David Palumbo to select never-before-published 'Salem's Lot sketches and alternative paintings from his archive while Glenn Chadbourne is creating ten more pieces just for the portfolio.

This portfolio will be signed by both artists and is limited to a one-time printing of just 750 numbered sets.

In addition, we’ve made arrangements for the artists to remarque a VERY, VERY limited number of copies of these Portfolios. This original piece of artwork will be a separate upgrade that will be offered tomorrow ONLY to those who have preordered the portfolio, so today is your last chance to reserve a portfolio AND be on the list to be offered that special upgrade.

For those who ordered our edition of 'SALEM'S LOT directly through our online store, a new production update will be emailed out to you today.

I'm trying to include information in these updates that might be useful to newer collectors who might not be as familiar with the production process. Today, I discuss why the "dummy book" is important and why we wait for the REAL paper stock to arrive for the dummy book instead of simulating the stock thickness with other random paper, which is technically a faster option but not as precise.

Anyway, I'm posting this note here now because someone had mentioned that he or she wasn't receiving any of these emails from us. Again, if you ordered our edition of 'SALEM'S LOT directly from us, you SHOULD see an emailed update in the next few hours. The subject line will be: 'Salem's Lot Production Update!

Thank you!

That map is pretty much just stinking awesome! With each new reveal, I get more and more excited for this series of books. The Production Update page says this will be headed to the printer within the next four weeks!

Wow, those are really going fast! Thanks for the info, Brian!

I just went with the Palumbo remarque. I would really like to have gotten both but it wasn't possible in this case. It was a tough decision, though, deciding between the two. Ultimately, it came down to already having a Chadbourne remarque in Carrie and not yet having a remarque by Palumbo. I'm sure both are going to be great. I wonder how well they are selling or if they are sold out yet?

Mindy is about to start turning people away who want the Palumbo remarque, I think, because we're almost at 100. 75% of Glenn's slots are now sold.

I signed up for both remarques. At the moment it's a lot of money, but hopefully that feeling will fade over the weeks ahead and will have totally disappeared once the book (the Artist Edition) is here.

Anybody else sign up for a remarque?

In my dream world, I purchased the lettered edition and just added both remarques to it!

Okay back awake now... I did purchase the limited edition and may go for one of these...I can only imagine how awesome these will look!
