I received 2 copies as gifts in 2001, so I’m listening this never open copy that was opened for the first time for the photos on this listing. It’s in mint condition with the only flaw being the price sticker removed from the back cover jacket for gift giving. This is your opportunity to purchase this original 2001 publication that you and your family can enjoy over a lifetime.
