Very rare 14th edition bound upside-down.

One of my aunts used to work for Doubleday, and the employees could buy "error" books at a substantial discount (or maybe they were free). I got a lot of children's books that way.

 

Coin alignment.

 

That’s an old book

 

I enjoy books. Wish I saved them all

 

You have a rear end collision, it's all good.

 

WOW! A 180* rotation. Nice error.

 

I kind of doubt you can return it for a corrected copy at this time.

 

Here is the excerpt from Frank Colletti's (@Treashunt )book talking about inverted bindings if anyone is interested;

 

That error book should go well with a collection of error coins.

 

Nothing special, really. I've got one that's a 360° rotation. Should be worth double what a 180° rotation is worth.

 

Yeah, well I've got one with a 36,000,000° rotation! And several coins from the same year with matching rotations!

 

With a 180* rotation you just turn the book upside down but with a 360* rotation you’d have to do a cartwheel to be in the correct position.

 

Great, now I'm dizzy.

 

But...are you going to get it slabbed?
