No price clippings, no remainder marks. When you receive this book, you'll feel as though you've stumbled into a cave and come across.an elven sword named Glamdring -- or the crown of the fabled Prester John -- a ring of invisibility, or even a Magic Lamp, prosaic as that may sound! You MAY even cartwheel with glee! NOTE: The FAINTEST traces of handling to the sides of the pages and to the tops, three micro-dots of foxing.
