Description: Up for sale is a Very Rare, SIGNED Book Club Edition, (BCE), of Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton. SIGNED Copies of This Modern Day Masterpiece are Scarce and Becoming Exceedingly Hard to Find!! Basis for the Incredibly Popular, Critically Acclaimed Film and Franchise!! Hardcover with its original dust jacket.Published by Alfred A. Knopf: New York, 1990.Please note that while "1990" is the only date present, our research has led us to believe that this copy was most likely published sometime after that date. Boldly SIGNED on the first, blank page by the celebrated author!NOT inscribed to anyone, simply SIGNED by the great Michael Crichton! Please note there is an additional signature present on this page! Initially, we believed the other signature might be of some importance. Unfortunately, we have been unable to ascertain, with an acceptable degree of certainty, the identity of the other individual who also put their signature on this page.For this reason, we MUST proceed with an abundance of caution and assume the other signature is simply the name of a previous owner.The additional signature adds no monetary value or has any cultural significance. If anything, the additional signature should be viewed as an unfortunate flaw!Once again, we want to repeat that there is another signature present on the same page as the Michael Crichton signature and we believe this signature is simply the name of a previous owner. An American Book Club Edition, (BCE).Please remember this is NOT the First Edition/First Printing of this title! This is a BCE, essentially an early reprint.Once again, this is NOT a First Edition/First Printing. This rare treasure has some very clearly visible wear, but is still in Highly Desirable, Highly Collectible condition!The wear, however, is considerable and should be carefully examined/considered BEFORE buying. The book appears gently read and other than the presumed previous owner signature we mentioned earlier, has no internal writing, no remainder marks, no missing pages and is NOT Ex-Libris. The binding appears cracked at certain areas but is still holding tight.All of the pages are present and fully attached. Some general/shelf wear along with creases/scuffing/rips/marks/wear to the spine/corners/boards, marks/wear to the edge/fore pages and creases/marks/wear to the pages, NOT affecting the text!Please note the wear to the spine/corners/cloth boards, particularly noticeable near/along the edges, and the wear that is present on the pages, particularly noticeable on certain pages.All of the wear previously mentioned is considerable and very clearly visible!The wear should be carefully examined/considered.As previously mentioned, the binding appears cracked at certain areas.The most obvious wear was closely photographed for your consideration.One can also see some space/separation along the top edge of the spine.This area was also closely photographed for your consideration. The original dust jacket is fully intact but has some extensive wear.Some general/shelf wear along with creases, scuffing, marks and rips resulting in some loss of paper.Please note the wear on the spine, at the corners and near/along the edges.The wear, particularly near/along the edges, is considerable and very clearly visible!All of the wear should be carefully examined/considered. We tend to grade the condition of our books rather harshly and took into consideration any and all wear when determining the value of this rare book.We purposely and closely photographed what we consider to be the most obvious and egregious wear.Once again, we want to reiterate that the wear to both the book and the dust jacket is considerable and very clearly visible!All of the wear should be carefully examined/considered BEFORE buying.
