Reads, "Sheila Metzner 2003" We have more signed and otherwise distinguished books in our store, to which we add new inventory daily, and we're always happy to combine shipping at actual cost. If the eBay checkout fails to properly combine your orders, we will issue a refund for the difference between what you paid to ship items separately and the actual cost of the combined shipping, on the day that we ship your package. (We don't find out the actual cost of combined shipping until we purchase the shipping label.) Condition: Our photographs reveal the condition best -- please enlarge and zoom in on them, and examine them carefully. Very fresh and clean, with very limited signs of use. Plastic dustjacket protector has scattered scratches and smudges that otherwise would have ended up on the dustjacket. No deterioration issues, but it has left a smidgen of light yellow to the interior of the dustjacket--time to let go of the plastic before it causes any major harm. Dustjacket has a bit of wear to the top of the spine area, and a surface tear at center of cover area--see photo with that circled in blue. Spine is un-cracked; pages are rounded and un-creased--appears to have never been read. Interior is completely free of all signs of use and abuse. A few dark spots running along the crease of the hardcover at the spine, looks to be a printing error, and has very little affect on its appearance. Absolutely nothing sticky or otherwise disgusting, and completely free of all funky odors. Basically, just not as "crisp" as when brand new. A very nice signed copy of one of the scarcest of Metzner's photography books. Shipping: USPS rates have changed, and media mail isn't always the cheapest option -- often times, priority is cheaper than media mail due to eBay's negotiated rates, so please read on -- We do our best to provide the lowest shipping rates by giving you as many choices as possible. You can find all of the rates available to you by scrolling to the Shipping section below (if on the app/a cell phone) or by clicking on the "SEE DETAILS" link to the right of the "Shipping" amount noted next to the photos (if on the browser/computer version.) These are the only ways to view all of your shipping options (including their costs and arrival dates.) We consider funky odors (cigarette smoke, mildew, etc) to be an important part of a condition report. Corndogcache is a 100% non-smoking environment, and we'll let you know if any of our vintage items smell like it (or anything else) from activities they may have been involved in before they came to us.
