Re: If I Won the Lottery ...
For many years I thought I would be able to pick up a 1st 1st of Nightshift. I had purchased a Dolso Haven Fundraiser (Letter AA I believe) traycase with a nice illustration from Glenn and owned that for a bunch of years. I never did end up with Shift and a few years ago sold of the traycase, passing it along to someone who can use it for it's purpose.
So if I won the lottery I would try and buy back the case and purchase a Nightshift 1st.

Mine would be a fine copy of Rage, US first. That's a pricey one for a first trade edition paperback!

Re: If I Won the Lottery ...
For me, if we're talking about just SK books, it would be hardcover first editions of:
Carrie (1974) **currently have 6th printing**
Cycle of the Werewolf (1983) **have SC, but would like HC too **
Night Shift (1978) **currently have Book Club**
The Shining (1977) **currently have 14th printing**
Thinner (1984) **currently have 2nd printing**
