This has to be a QC issue.  I don't think I've ever seen this.

Yeah, I was just puzzling over that myself. I can't believe that I never noticed! I even started writing Restoration...

I saw few more restored books with the green labels too.  QC is in opioid crisis.

Really enjoyed this thread Sean.

Amazed a little tiddler like me won one book, let alone two with so many sharks in the pond.

OK, posting the big one next. Don't get too excited, because I'm not letting it go cheap!

I must be the only person on the planet that does not like Frazetta.

If Baker had devoted his career primarily to PCH instead of Romance, I would probably have turned to crime to acquire his work.

That book has never been pressed, and the corners are super nice. I bet it could be bumped. I'm crazy for letting this go, but again, I have bigger fish to fry!
