2. Richard Matheson's Unrealized Dreams Signed Limited Edition Hardcover

UNREALIZED DREAMS is three screenplays by Richard Matheson which he is quite fond of but were not produced for a variety of reasons.

The first script is the sequel to “The Incredible Shrinking Man.”

The second script (a first draft with handwritten changes on each page), “Appointment in Zahrain”, was expressly written for Clark Gable. The actor became ill on the set of the film he was working on prior to Zahrain and soon passed away.

The third script has all of the actors from Matheson’s acclaimed “Comedy of Terrors” returning to play other parts in another horror/comedy. As Matheson mentions in his introduction to UNREALIZED DREAMS, after he completed the script, the actors began passing away one by one, with Vincent Price being the last.

3. The Richard Matheson Companion Signed Limited Edition Hardcover

The Richard Matheson Companion is a unique collection of writing by and about this prolific, multitalented storyteller, edited by Matheson experts Stanley Wiater and Matthew R. Bradley.

6. The Link by Richard Matheson Signed Limited Edition Hardcover

The Link began as a 557-page outline Richard Matheson wrote for a proposed 20-hour ABC-TV mini-series in the 1970’s. Television executives asked him to shorten the series into 7 hours. Later, after Matheson had written three hours of the miniseries the two parted company. Matheson’s vision could not be condensed without destroying the essence of the plot and characters. This is that original outline, in narrative form, appearing here in publication for the first time.
