The chance discovery of a ship buried underground for millions of years transforms the inhabitants of a New England town into one evil, homicidal entity. First edition, second state, with a full 1 through 10 number line but without the "permissions to come" statement printed beneath as a true first printing would have. This copy features the author's name in gold, though it should be noted that both the red and the gold versions are equally desirable. The book itself is clean with no writing, marks, underlining, or bookplates. No remainder marks. Not an ex-library copy. Spine is tight and crisp. Corners are square, and the boards are flat and true with only some light edge wear. There may be some very, very light browning to the pages as well as some light soiling to the textblock foreedge. Dust jacket is not price-clipped but does have some scuffing and light scratching, some minor edge wear, and some browning to the jacket flaps and white lettering on the front cover and spine. The inside of the jacket is also browned and somewhat soiled along the spine. The gold lettering on the front cover, which can be quite worn on these books, shows moderate rubbing. This collectible, very good+/very good, first edition/second printing copy is protected with an archival mylar dust jacket cover. Satisfaction guaranteed!
