Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

When I Spoke to an Archivist 10 Years ago at AA GSO in New York, They Couldn't Tell me the Exact Number of Copies of the 1974 5th Printing of "The A.A. Way of Life" That Were Printed With a Black Cover. They Said That There Were Likely Only a Handful to Fewer Than a Hundred Copies (Or Less) That Were Printed With the Black Cover!!! They Stated They Had Only Seen Two of Them Over the Past 40 Years!!! And I've Personally Only Seen Three Copies in my 45+ Years of Collecting A.A. Literature, So the 1974 Black Cover Copies of the 5th Printing of "The A.A. Way of Life" is One of the Rarest A.A. Books Ever Printed & Extremely Hard to Find!!!! ONLY A HANDFULL STILL EXIST OF THOSE PRINTED WITH A BLACK COVER!!! In All, There Were Only 30,000 Copies Printed of the 1974 5th Printing of "The A.A. Way of Life" & ONLY A VERY FEW that were printed with a black cover!!! The Black Cover 1974 5th printings are the RAREST of all The A.A. Way of Life/As Bill Sees It Printings!!! This Copy is in "LIKE NEW" Condition!!! This unique book is a printing anomaly but GSO confirmed that there were a few copies of the 5th printing that ended up having a black cover. The Cover is Pitch Black as opposed to the Grayish colored copies-The Cover of This Copy is in Like New Condition!!! There is NO Writing, Highlighting or Underlining Anywhere in the Book!!! The Inner Pages are still very bright!! This Book is the First Edition of What is Now Called "As Bill Sees It" Book Comes With the Original Dust Jacket in Very Good Condition With Only Minor Edge Wear!! A "Great Find" For Collectors of Alcoholics Anonymous or Any A.A. Archives. These Exceptionally Rare Pitch Black Cover 1974 5th Printings Rarely Come up For Sale Anywhere & These Early Printings of this A.A. Classics Are Becoming Increasingly Rare & HARD TO FIND! As Bill W. Wrote, "This material is an aid to individual meditation & a stimulant to growth and discussion, & can lead to a wider reading of all our literature. Over the past twenty-five years, it has been my privilege to write these books about A. A.: the text of Alcoholics Anonymous, Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, Alcoholics Anonymous Comes of Age, & Twelve Concepts for World Service." Book Measures 5¾" - 6¾" tall. 333 pages. …
