The Manson File: The Unexpurgated Charles Manson As Revealed In Letters, Photos, Stories, Songs, Art, Testimony, And Documents
Edited by Nikolas Schreck. 1st ed. The rare compendium of Manson-alia from Amok Press, blurbed by Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme (because of course it is) and containing, among other things "anecdotes, death certificates, astounding coincidences, and obscure but pertinent facts." I have no idea what makes the 1988 paperback so pricey and rare; Schreck's Wikipedia page, while quite a journey of its own, does little to illuminate the book's market. Hopefully the pics illuminate the book's condition, and this copy is in finer fettle than many I've seen: very slight cornerwear; the bottom right of the front cover flips up very slightly; -- but the spine, while somewhat faded, is uncracked and straight, the pages bright and unmarked inside, sitting snugly. A really nice copy of this scarce book.
