This auction is for a one-of-a-kind boxed set of The Bachman Books. These books were bound using the interior of the 1985 Plume edition of The Bachman Books. The set includes the four novels by Stephen King, writing as Richard Bachman-- RAGE, THE LONG WALK, ROADWORK, and THE RUNNING MAN. Each Book is half bound in genuine kidskin leather with black cloth cover boards. Each book also sports textured and colored endsheets with French parchment at the front and back of the text blocks. Gold stamping on the spine and on the front of each book. And the set also includes the custom slipcase. **NOTE--There is some slight yellowing of the interior pages due to the age of the original book. The covers are brand new.** For more information on how these were built, refer to this thread here at The Crypt-- the-crypt.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=444I'll be selling these as an auction with a starting minimum bid of $150. To make a bid, you can either send me a private message here at The Crypt or email me at Contact@HedgesBookBindery.com. Please place the words King Bid in the subject line of your message. I will place the current bid amount at the bottom of this post as they come in and I'll update it as soon as possible. Medial Mail shipping is included in the final selling price of the auction for US residents. For any other shipping methods or for people living outside the US, actual shipping costs will be added to the final selling price of the books. Contact me if you have any questions. CURRENT HIGHEST BID== $150~c

I saw these courtesy of etaylor on another board I frequent. I can't afford to bid right now, but you do beautiful work, Chris.

**shameless plug coming up**
I'm bumping this one up a little. I'll probably leave this auction up through this week and then end it next week. There's a bid up, so if you're thinking about it.....

Ah, I need to stop by more often I missed this. But I want to say that was a great idea and the books look great. I've always thought a hardcover release of the bachman books in individual books would be awesome. Great job!
