Seller's Description:
Near Fine. Book 6th pr. Book is square, solid, and unread. When you receive this beauty you'll tuck it into the zip pocket of your speedsuit, flip your glimmer shades to high-res, and hop into your id-shifter, all systems set to quantum-overdrive, headed for the far reaches of the solar system with your inner frequency set to-you guessed it-'The Dark Side of the Moon. ' In protective archival bag! NOTE: The book is lightly age-toned and with just faint rubs of edge-wear. It has one odd flaw-at some point in the past it got 'bent' right about the middle of the spine. Say, for example, you had the book in your hip pocket and sat on it but then right quick you jumped up? What might result is this flaw: a spot midway up the spine where you can see a light wrinkle/crease that looks, at first like a binding ripple where the glue didn't set uniformly, a common 'flaw' on pbks of the 60s-70s. Sounds worse than it looks, ultimately a very minor flaw.
