Colorado Kid -- limited edition
PS Publishing (UK) announced a signed/limited edition of The Colorado Kid. If you're not familiar with PS, they published Joe Hill's story collection. Quite an array of choices for this book, including pick-your-own-artist (sorta).

Q) Who's the mystery illustrator?
A) Glenn Chadbourne will be the third illustrator. (He's also illustrating the upcoming Secretary of Dreams for Cemetery Dance.)
Q) Wow I really like (or hate) Glenn Chadbourne's work, can I swap my copy with another illustrators?
A) Pete has stated that he doesn't want to start swapping different editions if possible. I can imagine the extra paperwork and potential for mix ups if a flood of people ask to switch. However if you feel very strongly about it feel free to e-mail him directly, maybe he'll be willing to work something out.
Q) Are all editions still available?
A) YES - All editions for all artists are still available
Q) Wasn't the traycased edition sold out already though?
A) It originally sold out right away, however Stephen King has authorized an additional 48 copies for a total of 100. Each artist will illustrate 33 of these. This edition will feature a gallery at the rear of the book containing all eighteen pieces of artwork, in full color – that's the three dust-jackets and three sets of five interior pieces.
Q) What about the 100th copy?
A) We will be producing a one-hundredth traycased copy which will have something extra special inside – we haven't decided exactly what it'll be yet, but it will be a bona fide one-off: so that means that the author will not be getting a copy and PS will not be getting a copy. The book will be auctioned on the PS website with all proceeds (that means no deduction for production expenses etc) going to the Macular Degeneration Foundation.
Q) So how is the numbering/lettering on the traycased edition going to work?
A) Each artist's segments will be labeled 1 - 33. I'm not sure what, if any, number will be put on the special 100th copy.
Q) How can I order?
A) Go to the PS PUBLISHING website.

As a reminder, due to paypal's policy restrictions PS cannot take paypal payments. But you can pay using a credit card or mail in your payment.
Q) How soon will I get a confirmation that my order has been received?
A) I've gotten confirmations within 24 hours but Pete's off to NeCon July 13th - 16th, so if you place an order during that time, give him some extra time, confirmations may come slower.
