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: VERY light evidence of handling to the sides of the pages, just from the contributors handling it over the years as I got it signed.
