About This Item
The Talisman by Stephen King (preceded by Carrie, Salem's Lot, The Shining, The Stand, The Long Walk, The Dead Zone, Firestarter by King and Ghost Story by Straub) Hardcover First Edition -First Printing New York: Viking, 1984, 645 pages. $18.95 cover price. A first printing because of a lack a printing number-line on the copyright page which was Viking's way of identifying first printings until 1989. Red cloth spine and black boards.
Fine- in Fine- Dust Jacket, an excellent copy, by no means flawless, but pretty solid, boards actually pretty clean and corners are straight, two dust spots on the front board, slight hint of reading wear and but text-block is generally quite nice, overall a generally nice copy. The dust jacket is near-perfect save a hint of edge-wear to the spine and upper front edge. Priced to sell.
IMPORTANT NOTE: All sales are generally FINAL. I do NOT accept returns because of buyer's remorse, "it was a gift but the recipient already had it", or "I found the same book at a better price". I am not selling new items to compete with other retailers. Returns are only accepted because of discrepancies regarding edition and/or condition of which I try to be very thorough in researching the edition/printing as well as describing ALL condition issues. So make sure you're 100% positive you desire one of my items before making a purchase.
NOTE: All modern books with dust jackets come with dust jacket covers.
