Important Added Info: Note that this Photoplay Edition includes a number of black and white plates from the film. This copy of the book includes the original dustjacket. It is uncommon to find these Photoplay Edition books with their dustjacket, as they often became frayed and were thrown out over the years.

Condition: very good to fine. The book itself is in very good to fine condition. There are faint water stains on the inside front cover and on the edges of the pages (but not on the pages themselves) and on the left edge of the final blank page of the book. Other than these minor defects, the book is in excellent condition. There is slight wear at the top and bottom of the spine. The dustjacket is in very good condition. There is a vertical crease down the left of the cover between the "D" and "R" of "DRACULA". There is slight paper loss at the top and bottom edges of the dustjacket, and greater paper loss at the top of the spine (the top of the "DR" of "DRACULA" is missing). There is a 1/2" tear on the top of the middle of the back cover that extends into the image. There is considerable wear on the edge flap of the jacket that covers the right edge of the front cover. All of these defects are relatively minor, and the image on both front and back cover are largely unaffected by them. The jacket is in a protective plastic sleeve.
