Near Fine. pp. 224. 1st pr. Book is square, solid, and VERY plausibly 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 age-toned and has very light shelf-wear to the edges, in addition to a 'ghost-crease' to the spine. Super-faint, indicative only of the book having been opened at one point after which it had aged to some degree.

Seller's Description:
Near Fine. pp. 224. 1st pr. Book is square, solid, and very plausibly unread with only two flaws: nearly nonexistent evidence of edge-wear and the price has been neatly inked out. 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 also lightly age-toned, predictably enough.
