Does anyone happen to have a $5.95 Carrie dust jacket laying around? I’d buy it, also looking for a $8.95 night shift one to.

I found a site for facsimile dust jackets, even tho it’s not real I’d still want it kinda.

Not all the value (but a lot of it) is in the dust jackets of Kings fab 5 (Carrie, Salem's, Night Shift, Shining, The Stand) first editions.

Good luck locating copies. To this day I'm kicking myself in the butt because I had the opportunity to own a rolled (never placed on book) first edition Carrie jacket. Oh my goodness, the opportunity missed.

I know, hence why I want the dust jacket. Where’d you miss yours? I know true1st books sells some dust jackets occasionally.

And for the prices I got my first edition night shift and Carrie I don’t really care that they don’t have the dust jacket. I mean night shift has the original dust jacket but someone clipped the price :/.

I passed on it back in the early 90's. I've been collecting King since 1980. Just gave my age away...hahahahaha

I think I got that one, Ralph. Was it the one for sale by Greg? It's still rolled in a tube.

Yes, Greg had it. I'm tickled you got it. You basically own a solid gold brick now.

Good to hear from you.
