The Bachman Books is a collection of novels by Stephen King published under the pseudonym Richard Bachman beginning in 1977. In King’s introduction to The Bachman Books, he hinted that more “undiscovered” Bachman manuscripts may be lurking. In 1996, he published The Regulators as a “posthumous” Bachman novel.
The book is in beautiful crisp, fine condition with red paper and black quarter cloth boards. The boards have sharp corners, and no edgewear. The binding is tight and square. Strong unfaded red titles to the spine. Stephen King signed the book in black ink on the title page “Stephen King”. The interior of the book is in crisp clean condition with bright pages with no handling marks, no stains, no foxing, no bent pages and no age toning to the pages. Beautiful condition book internally appearing as crisp and unread. Please see images.
The stunning original unrestored dust jacket is in beautiful fine condition. The dust jacket has strong vibrant colors with no chips, no nicks, no tears, no edgewear, no stains, no fading and no foxing. The dust jacket is NOT price clipped and has a stated price of $12.95
A very scarce title to locate signed. Would make a wonderful special gift for a Stephen King collector.
