catrick339 Posted June 24, 2023 Author Share Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) Tne Variable Man and Other Stories, Ace D-261, copy A Early P. K. Dic& story collection, printed under the Ace D series because it's a thick book, same size as the rest of the Doubles. One light crease lower LH BC, few flecks of ink missing. Glt and square, clean, glossy, untouched interior, but there are some tiny corners off the lower corner of the book along the open edge. I'm guessing production flaw, your mileage may vary.

catrick339 Posted June 24, 2023 Author Share Posted June 24, 2023 I'll note in passing that I've read The Long Walk more than once, just as much creepy fun as any of King's early novels. Recommended. That's it for the Early Birds, back this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
