"The Plant" Black Leatherbound Parts I-VI

Post by **smashman** » Mon Jan 19, 2026 2:47 pm

Hello Guys & Gals,

I have pretty much been out of the active collecting game for over 15 years but recently have been going through my collection. I have a copy of "The Plant" that is bound in black leather. It has parts I-VI. The title page shows Philtrum Press, Bangor, Maine, 2000. It is not signed or numbered. I sincerely cannot recall any details about this book, nor can I find any mention of it by searching online, checking Ebay, or ABE Books.

Anybody have any knowledge regarding this edition?

Thanks in Advance!

Back in the day the public was given rights to print The Plant for free. Many collectors had their copy bound into book form.

What you're describing sounds like a personal bound copy.

Hope this helps.

Ralph

Thanks Ralph! Hey, LONG Time no talk to! Nice to still see a familiar name.

Well, no telling what it may be worth. I may just throw it on EBAY and see what happens.

Jason.

Years ago I printed off a dozen copies of the plant from the pdf files at my work. I also bound them at work with presentation materials which were lying around. Cost me nothing and I made a few bucks on ebay for a few minutes work.

I think that was the best thing about working there!

Hey Ralph, You sent me a PM about this that I just saw, but I can't see any way in the PM to reply. Am I blind or has my IQ dropped under 10?

There should be a red "Send reply" button near the top of the message when you're viewing it.

Hi Ralph, There is no button to send a reply. If I try to compose a new message, it says I'm too new to do so. Maybe that's why I have no option to reply, as well? In any case, I went ahead and listed the book on EBAY, and it's active right now, but if we can figure out the PM reply issue, that would be great! I'm sure you want to make that your absolute top priority!

Hey Tomas here, I'm putting in a screenshot of what you should see when someone PM's you and circled the reply button in green. But if this doesn't match up with what you're seeing, send me a screenshot of what you're looking at via email (tomas@stephenkingcollector.com) and we'll get you sorted out.

Whoever rebound that book made it look great. Congrats on the sale.

Thank you very much. Yes, they did a nice job and it was a very fun listing to watch.
