With an additional dummy copy of Part Three which would would appear in 1985. Each volume housed in a folding chemise slipcase and all three housed in a custom full morocco clamshell box. Two very scarce and desirable volumes from the master of horror's rare unfinished novel. "On June 7, 2000, King posted a letter on his official Web site soliciting opinions from his 'Constant Readers' as to whether or not he should publish The Plant.The first installment was posted in early July and monthly installments continued through December, at which point King declared that the six installments published comprised the first part of the novel and that that section was called 'Zenith Rising'" (Spignesi: The Essential Stephen King 177). King wrote a few parts of The Plant and sent them out as chapbooks to his friends, instead of Christmas cards, in 1982, 1983, and 1985. Philtrum Press produced three installments before the story was shelved, with the original editions now regarded as highly desirable collector's items.
