KING, Stephen (b. 1947). Carrie. Garden City: Doubleday & Company, 1974. 8vo. Original maroon cloth gilt; original dust jacket (creasing, losses to top and bottom of dust jacket spine, rubbing to spine). Provenance: K. Roberta Reganny (stamp on front free endpaper). FIRST EDITION, FIRST PRINTING with ?P6? code in gutter on p. 199. Stephen King?s career began with Carrie, a story which he famously had so little faith in that he threw the first draft in the garbage, only for his wife Tabitha to rescue it, read it over and encourage him to finish. It was later adapted into a classic horror film of the same name by Brian DePalma.
