The book is in good condition, with noticeable wear to the boards, edges, corners, and spine ends. Both inner hinges have been strengthened with archival tape, and the textblock shows some fading. Still, an early printing of Ayn Rand's classic novel signed by her. Accompanying the book is a TLS and a signed photo, both signed to the owner of the book. Both the letter and the photo are in excellent condition. A rare and wonderful lot of Ayn Rand signed material, including her literary master stroke, <I>The Fountainhead</B></I>.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Books & Catalogs (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
