CONDITION:
Extremely low-grade/incomplete structural condition.
The book is completely detached and is essentially a collection of loose original pages with the cover. There is no functional binding or attached spine. Cover shows substantial wear including heavy creasing, tears, edge wear, paper loss and general age-related deterioration. Interior pages are loose and should be expected to show significant age and handling wear.
This should be considered a reader/filler/restoration candidate or an affordable example of a scarce 1950s Atlas pre-Code horror issue rather than a conventionally bound collectible copy.
Please review photos carefully for exact contents, completeness and condition. Sold as pictured.
