Hardcover. Condition: Near fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. This book from Scream/Press is often cited as one of the best-looking Stephen King limited editions.

This book is illustrated by JK Potter, with a full-color frontispiece, effective black-and-white illustrations throughout, and a laid in print of the graphic on the slipcase. The present edition includes the story "Becka Paulson", which was not included in the trade edition of Skeleton Crew; it was collected two years later in The Tommyknockers. Limited to 1000 numbered copies, signed by King and Potter. xxvi, 545, [9]. A near fine copy in a fine dust jacket and slipcase. The original number of the limited edition was apparently written in error; it was inked out and the correct number written alongside the original. There is a bit of tanning to the page edges. A very nice copy of this great SK limited edition.

Skeleton Crew Skeleton Crew is a collection of short fiction by American writer Stephen King, published by Putnam in June 1985. A limited edition of a thousand copies was published by Scream/Press in October 1985 (ISBN 978-0910489126), illustrated by J. K. Potter, containing an additional short story, "The Revelations of 'Becka Paulson", which had originally appeared in Rolling Stone magazine (July 19 August 2, 1984), and was later incorporated into King's 1987 novel The Tommyknockers. The original title of this book was Night Moves. Stephen King's #1 New York Times bestselleran anthology of stories from the outer limits of the imagination! From one of the greatest storytellers in modern times comes this classic collection of twenty-two works of fright and wonderunforgettable tales that will take you to where your darkest fears await. Whether it's a mysterious impenetrable mist camouflaging bizarre, otherworldly terrors that could herald the destruction of humanityor an eerie-looking child's toy that harbors an unimaginable evilor four college students on a deserted lake encountering something that crosses the boundary of sanityor a man suddenly given the omnipotent ability to quite literally edit his own realitythe extraordinary narratives found in Skeleton Crew are the enduring and irresistible proof that Stephen King is a true master of the short fiction form. Background In the introduction to Skeleton Crew (1985), his second collection of stories, King pokes fun at his penchant for "literary elephantiasis," makes scatological jokes about his muse, confesses how much money he makes (gross and net), and tells a story about getting arrested one time when he was "suffused with the sort of towering, righteous rage that only drunk undergraduates can feel." He winds up with an invitation to a scary voyage: "Grab onto my arm now. Hold tight. We are going into a number of dark places, but I think I know the way." And he sure does. Skeleton Crew contains a superb short novel ("The Mist") that alone is worth the price of admission, plus two forgettable poems and 20 short stories on such themes as an evil toy monkey, a human-eating water slick, a machine that avenges murder, and unnatural creatures that inhabit the thick woods near Castle Rock, Maine. The short tales range from simply enjoyable to surprisingly good. In addition to "The Mist," the real standout is "The Reach," a beautifully subtle story about a great-grandmother who was born on a small island off the coast of Maine and has lived there her whole life. She has never been across "the Reach," the body of water between island and mainland. This is the story that King fans give to their friends who don't read horror in order to show them how literate, how charming a storyteller he can be. Don't miss it. Signed by Author(s).
