About This Item
NY: Bantam, 1976. First Edition. Soft cover. Collectible Good. Heinzen, Steve (Edit.). 1st printing. Mass market paperback. Pictorial wraps. 171pp. Illus. Appendices. This is one of the more interesting early books published on Bigfoot/sasquatch. Al Berry recorded the so-called "Sierra Sounds" and one of the appendices discusses this. The first printing of this title, which this is, is now quite scarce; later printings also scarce. A good only copy. It's tight, but has some wear. The fore corners of the front cover have been reinforced with thin, archival tape because they were beginning to chip away. Top of front cover has a couple of small area near the top where the color sizing surface of the paper has peeled away, and one spot of same on the back. In spite of these flaws, this first printing should not be snubbed unless you need a fine copy. Some ridiculous prices are being asked for poorer copies of this book and they may not even be first printings.
