Stephen King, Owen King
Sleeping Beauties
London, Hodder & Stoughton, 2017. First UK edition. Hardback in dark blue cloth with dust jacket. SIGNED by Owen King on a tipped-in paper stuck on the half-title page, below an ex-dono by a previous owner. Interestingly, the paper King signed refers to a bookstore localized in Bangor, MA, so in the USA. The colored endpapers feature a butterfly design in clear blue over navy blue. A brick of a book with its 16 x 24 cm and 718 pp. size! An interesting collaboration between Stephen King and his son.
Reference : QZI-22
Some foxing on the fore-edges and in the margins of some pages. Paper slightly yellowed. A complete copy bearing Owen King's signature.
