Nowhere on this page do you see the normal “1st Trade Edition,” or something like that…
…on this book the only way to tell is if it has what I have circled here…without what it says there IT IS NOT A 1ST EDITION NO MATTER WHAT SOMEONE TELLS YOU OR WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE.
If you don’t believe me here is a link to what is considered the bible of 1st Edition books by Stephen King…and it’s on his website: CLICK HERE TO VIEW IT
The other aspect of the book that makes it valuable are…
…the scale pattern of the Dust Jacket. If you see the scales it is an early edition, just make sure to check the 1st printing I circled as well in case someone will try and do a Dust Jacket swap on you to try and fool you.
All the artwork was done in pencil & ink…
…and the book is illustrated throughout.
TRUE 1st edition with SCALES Dust Jacket (the dust jacket has some issues the price reflects that). SHIPS FREE VIA MEDIA MAIL
