The Deluxe Lettered Edition of It: The 25th Anniversary Special Edition by Stephen King was limited to 52 signed and lettered copies. Please note that the traycase is such a deep black color that it shows up gray in most of these photos because of the white backdrop and because I’m not much of a photographer.

I’m really pleased with how all three editions turned out. It was a fun book to work on!

Stunning! I’m happy with my numbered edition, but one of these lettered ones I think I would be afraid to even open in case a fly landed on it or something. 🙂 Beautiful photos!

Thank you!

Hey Brian! You have the best job in the world. You do know that, right? Great job!

Thanks, Mike!

Brian,
Would the lettered editions have any remarques inside by any of the artists?.
September 30, 2012 at 2:23 pm
Some collectors did ask for that option and we made the arrangements with the artists. Erin and Alan have completed their remarques and Glen is working on his now, but a hand injury set him back a bit.

WOW! Gee maybe I’ll hit the lottery? I sure would love to own this most beautiful copy! It is just fantastic! Hope Glen’s hand heals quickly as we can’t afford to have such a fine artist such as himself out of commission for long. And Alan & Erin…………be careful…..don’t be getting hurt too! You guys (and gals) at CD are so very lucky to have such wonderful artists!

We love working with all of these artists — they’re terrific!

Hi Brian, I have been waiting for ‘IT’ to be delivered for over a year! This will be the crown in my collection. It looks like it does not disappoint.
I am not a fan of Remarque in a book. The author in this case King approved the look and now gets defaced. It reminds me of graffiti on a building. It takes away not adds to it.
What are your thoughts?

What everyone else said…and I want to WORK at CD!!
