Hello, I have a 1st Edition Players Handbook, 6th Printing with an unusual twist.  The first 16 pages are printed, then the entire book is printed again, pages 1-127.  I have included a picture in the event my description does not do the situation justice.  I was curious if anyone has ever seen this before?  Is this unique?  The book is in NM/M condition and I was getting ready to eBay it, thinking it was a common misprint...however I cannot find any reference to such a misprint.  Thanks in advance for any insight!

Thank you,

Steve

Not so much a misprint as a misbinding. Pages were bound in groups of 8 sheets (16 pages when folded). Someone apparently grabbed an extra set of pages before binding by mistake. I'm certainly no authority on values of such miscues, but I don't think there are too many misprint junkies out there.

Shrinkwrap on the other hand...  :D

Hahaha, I love the shrink wrap!  Thanks for the good point about print vs. binding.  Thank you!
