    Cool story Menace. I began reading King in high school and he remains one of my favorite writers. My first limited purchase was Legacies, signed by King, and I have been fortunate enough to see him live once. I understand what you are saying, however you have an impressive collection. Enjoy your quest for a King singed book.

Well when I was 18 I was home alone , no money, bored out of my skull because I had nothing to do. My sister was a big reader and had a paperback of The Stand on the end table in the living room. The cover of the book drew me in and I thought why not if I didn't like it I only wasted 5 minutes. Well I picked it up and started reading and next thing I knew 3 hours had gone by I was totally drawn into the story I could not believe how visual a book without pictures could be. I could see every little detail in my head better than if I sat in front of the tv watching a movie. I was hooked from then on in. I looked for every Stephen King book I could fine to read I couldn't get enough of it. I started reading and writing because of Mr. King. So 30 years later and Stephen King is still my favorite author so that is why a signed Sk would be a benchmark to my collection and is why my collection feels meager without it.

        The Stand or It as they are my 2 favorite books would be my first choice. I almost had my hand on a limited Under the dome but lost the bidding in the last 30 seconds on ebay. But actually any SK signed limited edition book would be a fantastic book for me to have.

          I was asking so i can keep an eye out for a decent priced copy for you. The Stand and IT might be hard to come by though, and won't be cheap either. Have you read the new book 11/22/63 ? It's a great read and i bet if you look you could find a good deal on ebay on a signed 1st!?

              On I know The stand and it will not be cheap and hard to fine but that is my if I win the lottery dream I will buy them. I am also thinking about getting a second job for a month or 2 just to get the money to buy one. I haven't read 11/22/63 yet waiting on it to be shipped with the slipcase ..its not signed though.

                      The last of them until the ones on order come in. All thes stephen king books are first editions and about 60% of them were defaced by my exwife by either writing in them or ripping out pages . some she torn up so they are not there. Looking to replace all the ones she ruined.

                        That cover on "British Invasion" was also used on "Brighton Shock" and I said on my collection thread that I love that cover!
