Description
Stunning copy!! Highest cgc graded copy!!
With only 2000 copies printed, this book is EXTREMELY difficult to locate in ANY condition - and virtually IMPOSSIBLE to locate in high grade, such as this example. This is by far the best known example, the only 9.8 with no 9.6s and a few 9.4s on the census. Simply a stunning book with no spine stress whatsover. My reserve is FAR too reasonable. Any spots are on the case and not on the book. The book itself is the deepest, deepest black. My scanner does not handle black well but trust me when I say that the actual book looks like the dead of night. Looks completely unread!! Jet black spine will make finding another 9.8 truly next to impossible. I sincerely hate to let it go.
I take paypal, cheques, and money orders. Cheques wait at least two weeks to clear. Shipping depends on bidder location and preferences but is at least $7.
happy bidding!
