KING, Stephen. THE PLANT. PART 3. Bangor, ME: Philtrum Press, 1985. 
First Edition. A set of loose galley sheets (7-1/2" x 25") of the third 
part of King's novel-in-progress published privately in an edition of 
only 200 copies as a Christmas greeting and not offered for public sale. 
This is the only set of galleys for this book we have seen, and it 
contains numerous corrections by King himself, sometimes signed, 
including at the head of the title: "Copy-edit complete./Steve King." 
Above that is a typed note about the text signed by Michael [Alpert], 
who was involved with the printing of the book. It appears that King's 
comments are photocopied from an original. We have priced this as a 
scarce issue of the book photocopied from the copy King corrected and 
not as the original copy that King corrected. If we are wrong, someone 
will be very happy. And if we are not wrong, we can still comfortably 
assume that even advanced King collectors do not have this. Very Good 
with some expected wear. (#011195) $2,500.00
