VG (4.0). Moderate spine stress, light edgewear, no chips or tears, staples slightly pulled, rubbing to skull on front cover with slight color loss to yellow. Off-white pages. Cover: Uncredited. Art: Shelly Moldoff, Harry Harrison?, Maurice Gutwirth, uncredited others. Overstreet: "Classic skeleton cover." GPAnalysis: A 3.5 sold for $166 in January 2020; a 4.5 sold for $400 in February 2021. Great cover by an unknown hack depicting a terrified guy face-to-face with a bag of bones.
