Knopf: New York, 1972. Boldly SIGNED on the title page by the great Michael Crichton! NOT inscribed to anyone, simply SIGNED by the celebrated author! Please note there is an additional signature present on this page! Initially, we believed the other signature might be of some importance. Unfortunately, we have been unable to ascertain, with an acceptable degree of certainty, the identity of the other individual who also put their signature on this page.For this reason, we MUST proceed with an abundance of caution and assume the other signature is simply the name of a previous owner.The additional signature adds no monetary value or has any cultural significance. If anything, the additional signature should be viewed as an unfortunate flaw!Once again, we want to repeat that there is another signature present on the same page as the Michael Crichton signature and we believe this signature is simply the name of a previous owner.
