This was a gift to a family member and it's been sitting here ever since it came out. The only thing I would say could be an issue is the second picture where something was obviously pressed onto the book during shipping or upon unpacking as it came this way.  Nothing was ever cooked or baked from this book so it's high time to give it up. Marking it only good though I think it's better, it's simply because of the little mark. Insured shipping for this signed edition is only $7.75 so good luck and have fun buying.

**A promise I make that is true since my beginning on eBay back in 1999~ I do not hold items. Once you see the tracking number, the item is taken out of the house to be shipped as I'm first and foremost, excited for you to get your item and secondly, I'm not into clutter. SO, please be patient with our delivery systems as they are overwhelmed and I can certainly speak for our local PO. They're operating on a skeleton crew and UPS also drops everything there for the USPS people to deliver! Thank you for your understanding of this and the fact that I have no control of your item once it leaves my very capable hands. Thank you for perusing our site and God bless~and remember, we all thrive on feedback which tells others we're safe to buy from.

Also, combining shipping doesn't mean you get 2 or 3 items shipped for the price of one as a few have thought lately. It means I will pack everything together and save you money as in this example; one item is $4.15 to ship. Say you want 3 items, it will be less than tripling the price to be $12.45 but they can not all go for $4.15. (o:

Auction items to be paid for within 12 hours or I will need to relist, thank you.

One more thing which I'd like to mention is that when eBay gives you a delivery time, it's only an estimate. Many things can make the shipment late with no fault of the shipper so please remember this and give the sellers feedback based on the item you received, not when you received the item.
