Nice! Congrats to you.
Now there will be a lull for a while, after the Revival Slipcover. So, guesses on what will come 1st: 'Salem's Lot, Skeleton Crew or the Carrie Art Portfolio? (with 1 remarque by Vladislave Tikulik and I think 2 by Chadbourne, hard to remember at this point! I just kept opting in for everything CD kept adding to it. I don't think I want to total it up. )
So I need to win a prize or two to keep them endorphins running!

Like many of us, I now have a flat-signed 1st/1st of Finders Keepers thanks to Kevin E and his lovely wife for, though not GIVING it away, giving me That Amazing Deal on this. It's the sloppiest signature in my collection, but I'm just as happy to have it as I am of ANY of my SK books.
Murphy's Law is that just yesterday is when my IRS refund came in, which I invariably would have used to attend the event had it shown up just a few weeks earlier! OK, pictures all over the place of FK, but here are mine:

I had a Half Price Books open just a few blocks away a couple of weeks ago, so decided to go take a look today. Other than what you see on my Collection thread, I don't have many other printed SK. I got rid of them with space concerns back in college. Clearly, I wish I still had them all, but I'm glad to start getting at least some $5.99 placeholder editions. I didn't have a good enough of a cell connection to be able to pull up the catalog so I was using the 1st Edition guide at stephenkingcollector.com. I'm seeing some discrepancies though, now that I'm comparing to the Catalog here.
First is a nice copy of Eyes Of The Dragon. I assume this is a BCE, no price on DJ (which is embossed and not very faded!, but has a few 1/2 inch tears). The book itself is nearly pristine (it has 1 page that is folded over) and has the "Copyright © Stephen King, 1987 First published in 1987 by Viking Penguin Inc.", but has white pastdowns & the other identifying part on the CP page starts with 'Composition by NK Graphics, Keene, NH.

The 2nd one I picked up today is Christine, which looks like it is undeniably a proper 1st. DJ is in good shape for a 30+ year old book, boards aren't worn through. I'm pretty pleased with this one.

Nice! How many more 1st/1sts to go?
Oh, nearly all of them. Purged nearly my entire collection in college because I didn't have room for them. Only kept a handful that were important to me, and those unfortunately are well-read, so they'll need to be replaced at some point as well. I think the only true 1st I got yesterday was Christine. I think the others are BCE's. From A Buick 8 is a full paper binding, though I don't know where the poster came from, I need to research that more. As far as the EOTD, the pastedowns are the wrong color, and the text on the publisher page doesn't match the 3 known states for the 1st editions from the 3 various printers.

I have that same FAB8. I found it several years at an antique store still sealed with the poster.
Fortunately, most King firsts are pretty easy to find. Good luck with the hunt!
OK, I haven't been keeping up with the new additions so here we go for a large post! In the interest of making sure I make note of them, I'm just going to do them in alphabetical order.
