First edition, first impression (Doubleday, 1978) with 'T39' to the gutter of page 823. Signed, inscribed and dated by the author to the front endpaper: 'For Peter with best wishes, Stephen King 5/5/89'.

Quarter-bound in black cloth with gilt lettering to spine, tanned boards and white endpapers and paste-downs. A better than near fine copy with a small knock to bottom edge of upper board and a very small area of extremely faint spotting to top edge; contents lovely and clean and free from inscriptions. The original and unclipped dust jacket, priced at $12.95, is also in excellent, near fine condition with a couple of very small closed tears and associated creases to head of spine panel, mild toning to spine panel verso, as is common and a very minor instance of rubbing to bottom corner of upper panel .

A fantastic copy of the author's iconic fifth novel.
