Notes

  • Neil Gaiman signed and numbered 177 of the Special Editions
  • I would assume since there is no price on the jacket of the Special Edition, these were not sold to the public, but rather given away.
  • There were 1,000 Limited Editions, and 26 Lettered Editions published by Subterranean Press
  • The Special Edition Extras are not available in the Limited or Lettered Edition
  • The Limited and Lettered Edition contains full color photographs of an Irish puppet production of Coraline
  • The Lettered Edition was not published until March, 2008
