Seller's Description:
Good. Signed by the Author The author has written an inscription on the inside cover page signing his name, Stan, at the end of the message. The front cover has a curl. The inside cover page has a slight corner fold mark. A few pages have their corners folded. Light shelf wear to the covers and the page edge. But in general good enough to be meaningful! A keeper and a curl to the cover will surely straighten.
