About This Item
Hardcover edition, published by Colophon, 1991. This is the 20th Anniversary edition. Signed by Sol Stein with an inscription for the former owner, on a label on the front end paper, "For Veronica, Sol Stein". This is a numbered edition, this is number 309. The dramatic 'Young Adult' novel set in a High School with two talented and unusual 'Magicians'. The dust jacket is intact and is not price clipped. 257 pages, black cloth covered boards with the title and author name on the spine. All lettering and design elements on the boards are crisp and not rubbed or worn. The dust jacket has been protected with a clear, removable cover, so there is no wear to report, no tears or edge wear. The boards are flat, and the corners are not rubbed or worn. There is a little bit of age tanning to the top edge of the text block, very faint, not very noticeable. Not a remainder, not a library discard. No former ownership marks, and no writing on the text pages besides the author signature label. The attached photo is of the copy we have in our inventory, not a stock photo.
