King_Firestarter.htm

The holy grail for Stephen King book collectors is the very rare asbestos bound edition of Stephen King’s Firestarter that was published by Phantasia Press in 1980 and originally sold for $300 each.

Only 26 lettered copies were printed and signed by the author. Allegedly, one of the lettered copies ironically was lost in a fire. So if true….that makes only 25 copies that exist in the world!

This was also Stephen King’s first signed limited edition book and considered to be the scarcest SK collectible.

So if you have $18,054 to burn, you can purchase this highly sought after book HERE from The Fine Books Company in Rochester, Michigan.

Any wealthy industrialists, secret benefactors or recent Power Ball winners who happen to read THE FIRE WIRE and would like to purchase this book for me as an early birthday present can do so; I will be sure to make a prominent space on my bookcase for it!
