Originally published in 1966, the second edition includes a section on information gathered since the publication of 1966. The mysterious Thoen Stone is a sandstone slab discovered in 1887 in the Black Hills of South Dakota carved with an eerie inscription that reads like gothic western horror.

Very good. The binding is square and solid. Inside is clean with no writing, other than inscription. / Fair. The jacket is worn with chipping and losses at corners and spine. Now in a protective mylar cover. Item #64
