Finders Keepers promo:

I just hope it ships.

<edit> Ms Mod, I tried to make it a spoiler, but I obviously goofed somewhere. <edit>

Fixed. For the next time, the first one should not have had the / at the end, just the word spoiler, and on the second one it should have been in front of the word spoiler instead of at the end. :smile2:

Thanks! I'll try to remember. They say the memory is the second thing to go.

Preaching to the choir. :smile:

Or you can always use the spoiler tag from the formatting bar above the text box. Highlight the words you want hidden and then click on the icon that looks like the last one in the image below and select spoiler from the drop down menu.

I got an original Creepshow poster, the one that's harder to find (the Creep in the bedroom window) than the one I already had (the box office Creep). I splurged for a nice framing job since this movie and Stephen King were such an influence on me. And it's signed by the guy who did the special effects (including the Creep), Tom Savini.

Awesome!! If you ever get to see Joe Hill you could have him sign it, too, as he's the 'kid'.

I second KRF's awesome! That's such a great poster. I've gotta say though that I met Savini at a convention and he's a jerk. I do love his work though and always will. Definitely one of the best SPFX guys ever. He's been at a few others that I've been to but after that first meeting I'm keeping my money. I did have him sign my Day of the Dead poster and Crystal Lake Memories book. Should've done something Creepshow.

John- how were you able to order this broadside? I have an ISBN number for it but it doesn't show up on Amazon or biblio or even on the S & S website.

I did a Google search using the ISBN and found a bookstore. I then ordered it. I just checked, though, and it appears my order has disappeared. My credit card has not been charged either. I guess I'll have to find one on the secondary sites.

I posted a thread about this. I had no idea it existed until I saw it on FB and your post. I don't understand this whole thing so hoping to get some answers from other members or Marsha as to what it means. Hoping my local bookseller has it but who knows.

My understanding is that those are not meant to be for sale. They are promotional items that are intended to be used for marketing only by book sellers. My guess is that they got reported to S&S who pulled them, but that's just a guess.
That's what I was wondering! Can you delete my thread? Not warranted anymore =D Thank you! I didn't know what a "broadside" was.

I have this one coming as well! I'm going to frame it and put it on top of my SK bookcase. :)

The Stephen King Illustrated Companion" by Bev Vincent

Kept thinking of that book last night. I am going to watch for it. When I went down the list of SK books I was surprised at how
many I don't have; some I've not even heard .... Next week going to a very large used book store we have here. I don't go often
as it is 1 hour each way on the bus and in a bad section of town. He always has
several shelves of SK books and had some luck finding those 'difficult' ones. There are so many used book stores here; some better
than others....
