I don't feel bad about it, I just feel like I knew about the printing info and for some reason forgotten about it. Ill blame it on getting old. lol.
I did check my books from the Book Festival event and as everyone is pointing out they are 7th prints. I didn't even think to check that upon purchase, not that it would of mattered, a signed SK book is a signed SK book!!
Although I did check my copies from the EOW book tour and those are all 1st/1st.
From a collectors and value standpoint I think the value of the signed 1st/1st will more than likely go up as there are at the very least 400+ 7th print signed copies floating around out there now.

Yes, they are indeed 1st/7th. When they put out the remaining ones that had not been picked up by lottery winners, I checked a handful of them really quickly. None were 1st/1st. But like others have said...signed is signed. I only have one other SK signed book, Dolan's Cadillac...so I will cherish this book regardless. I am not an eBay'er so no intention on ever selling any of my collectible books. If my kids decide to when I am gone that is their decision.

Hmmmmmm can you say if there are still two events?

Yes, there will be another one but as I'd mentioned earlier, it is at a university as well (not UMaine, though).

Will King be signing copies or will there be any pre-signed copies available at the event?

Pre-signed copies will be available at the event. They're still deciding the mechanics of how distribution of those will happen.
