"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King

Hi Kris.
It could be a few more to be honest.
All the 1st editions I have are signed and on most of them I have two copies, in some cases three.
The Different Seasons that Simon posted for me yesterday is one of three signed copies.
As you well know it soon mounts up!!

Thanks to David, Heath, and Gerald I have recently added the following: The Talisman and Black House S/L's, All three signed books in the Hodges trilogy, and an FDNS S/L along with a flat signed Cell. Grand total of 30 sigs. I'm gaining on you Alec and Bob!

Nice job, Bill! That's an impressive amount!
Updated! Thank you for providing your tally as well, Alec.
Here's a list of the current triple-digit collectors:
- Pasiuk57: 450 (approx.)
- carlosdetweiller: 376 (approx.)
- sentinel: 350 (approx.)
- Wizardsrainbow: 325 (approx.)
- Alec: 277
- Roseannebarr: 208
- tippy4: 160 (+30?)
- Mr. Rabbit Trick: 160
- Randall Flagg: 150 (approx.)
- Fsmdr: 139
- Johnny007: 113
- surly: 100+
- jhanic: 100
I'm sure that most of these numbers are outdated/inaccurate but this is the information that was posted in this thread. I left out Bad Penny (181 sigs) because AFAIK, he's not collecting anymore.
Something to strive for, ye single- and double-digit collectors!
There's nearly 3000 signatures in that list alone. The amount of times Stephen King has signed his name on a book must be phenomenal!
