No they're not readily available and tend to go for a tidy sum when they show up on Ebay.

If he doesn't have them, he should be able to track down a set, or at least keep you in mind next time he gets a set. I know he's swamped right now, so don't expect a reply right away.

Just the unsigned edition did not come with the prints bound in, they were sold separately.

Interesting. I'd always assumed the B&N edition w/ all its art was a reprint-of-sorts of the Centipede edition -- didn't realize the prints were loose and not included in the latter.

Originally posted by St. Troy View PostI thought I'd heard that the run of 600 lacked the interior photos present on the other editions, no? Perhaps I misunderstood something I've read, or perhaps you're saying the photos were separate and not in the book.
It would be good news if this edition did have photos; I might then be interested in hunting one down - without the photos, it strikes me as just a big, black lump, scarcely more appealing then the common illustrated edition (Knopf etc.), which would have the photos. Ok, I'm overstating things - I like cloth books, I like Salem's Lot, and I like limited editions - so who am I kidding, I'd still want one of these, but not for $200+ without photos.

Originally posted by T-Dogz_AK47 View PostThat's why I have never bothered trying to get a copy of this edition. I heard it's just too much of a nightmare to keep clean!!!
Damn shame though, as Salem's Lot is a bloody good book!!!
What it needs is a specialist publisher, expert in creating beautifully crafted books to really go to town and release a definitive super deluxe edition...
Now where do we find such a publisher?....
Hey Brian!.....

Does anyone have one of The Collectors cases for sale?

Originally posted by Martin View PostThe opening bid on this one seams reasonable, if the book is as described:

I may have to jump on this edition myself if thegunslinger41 doesn't wish to bid on it.
