Description: This RARE UNREAD leather masterpiece of literature and bookmaking from The Franklin Mint is in VIRTUALLY PERFECT condition with no markings inside or out and no attached bookplates. Anyone considering a purchase of this book knows what they are looking at, so I won't say any more about what it is. All that I'll say is that it is equivalent to a freshly unwrapped brand new book. This book is the RARE genuine leather edition, not to be confused with the much more common but still rare leatherette hardcover one. The distinction is easily made by the ribbon bookmark sewn into the real leather version. This also applies to the other books in the Franklin Mystery Library series. Basically, each book has two versions of the same edition. They look very similar, but the binding is different. The leather versions all have the ribbon bookmark, whereas the cheaper and much more common versions do not. This is the easiest way to differentiate between them. The leather versions are much rarer and more sought-after and typically sell for multiples of the price of the common hardcover ones. Most book collectors and you who are reading this likely know all this, but I will be selling both styles of these books, and it has to be clear for those who may not know that there even is a difference, and why two books that appear to be the same are priced so differently. COMBINED SHIPPING is always automatically active, and if you buy 5 or more in the same transaction, FREE SHIPPING!!
