New York, NY: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1987. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. The chance discovery of a ship buried underground for millions of years transforms the inhabitants of a New England town into one evil, homicidal entity. First edition, second state, with a full 1 through 10 number line but without the "permissions to come" statement printed beneath as a true first printing would have. This is a clean copy with no writing, marks, underlining, or bookplates. No remainder marks. Not an ex-library copy. Spine is generally tight and crisp, though there is a crack in the gutter of the title page. Corners are square, and the boards are clean, flat and true with some minor wear to the edges and foreedges and some bumping to the lower spine. The pages are heavily browned with some light soiling/foxing to the textblock edges and a mark on the bottom edge (this does not appear to be a remainder mark). A section of the textblock stands out as not being as heavily browned as the rest of the pages. There is a slight crease along the spine, and the gold gilt lettering on the spine is slightly worn. There is no dust jacket. This collectible, very good, first edition/second printing copy is protected with an archival mylar cover. Satisfaction guaranteed!
