Bangor, Maine: Philtrum Press, 1982-1985. First edition. A nearly fine to fine set. Volume one's rear panel is mostly stained with slight bleed to the last leaf, volume two has a slight nick to the edge of the right front cover. This is the real thing, not the seemingly common unsigned designer, printer and binder proofs, trial copies, and fragments in the marketplace these days -- and part three is the stopper. Now housed in a custom clamshell box. (20305). Octavo, three volumes, decorated green wrappers, sewn. Each part limited to 226 copies of which these are one of 200 numbered copies (numbers 124, 117 and 114 respectively) each signed by King. A presentation set, each booklet having a warm signed inscription by King to Michelle [i.e. Michele] Slung with the second volume inscription quite lengthy. And the last two volumes King also signs off with "Tabby says hello." Michele Slung is an author, editor and literary critic and friend of King's who published Stephen King's story "The Revelations of 'Becka Paulson" in her anthology I SHUDDER AT YOUR TOUCH.
