About this Item

1st pr. SIGNED by AUTHOR on the title page. Book is square, solid, and unread. Once in receipt of this beauty, you'll feel as though you've journeyed over the hills and far away, beyond the field we know -- you'll be THAT enchanted! In protective archival bag! NOTE: Light evidence of edge wear and a red stamp to the page bottoms. Also, please bear in mind that this is an old paperback -- the pages may have aged some. If it is terribly tanned, like it was kept in a garage and baked, I'll make note of it, but otherwise, just assume you're buying a paperback that's as old as the publishing date; on the other hand; if it was kept in a hermetically sealed chamber all these years, and looks crazily well-preserved, I'll make note of that as well. And you can always email and ask, and I'll check the book, no problem. I'm including this disclaimer because I just got done wrangling with a guy over a batch of paperbacks from the early 1970s who expected the pages to be perfectly supple and gleaming white -- "Like the ones I buy at Barnes & Noble" he said.uh, HELLO?!
