| 2. | Editor: Hitchcock, Alfred. Alfred Hitchcock's Happy Birthday!
Dell Publishing Co. First Book Edition. Mass Market Paperback. Poor. Reading Copy Only.
June, 1972. $.75 original price. 212 pages. Light beige paper. A scarce book, but a Reading Copy only. Front Cover: 3 pieces of the surface are missing. One is 1/4" x 1/2". The second is 1/2", tapering down to 1/4", widthwise, on the cover. The third is 1/2" x 1 1/2" and at the top of the cover. There's a tear at the spine side, about 1" wide, at the middle portion of the cover. Spine: A 1 1/2" tear at the top portion, plus the other tear I mentioned, which extends onto the cover. There's also a bit of other surface tearing on the spine. Back Cover: Half the cover surface is missing. In General: Loose pages. The back of both covers has some light grey ink run. There is some page rippling, mostly very gentle, except for the last few pages, which have a 1/4" x 3" sort of channel. The green colour on the edging is faded. Story: 14 short stories of murder and terror. This is the First Book Publication and not many copies are floating around, all, seemingly damaged. Strange. It's like a conspiracy to make certain good copies aren't around.
