1983791983. Very good. Ps. Sensational original presentation color photograph 16" X 20" of Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia in her slave costume. Boldly inscribed by Fisher in black ink to her psychiatrist Dr. Arnold Klein "For my own crazy. Who loves you darling Guess again. Princess Leia. Opiates for sure." With the original hologram sticker "Officially Licensed Star Wars Photograph" in the lower left corner. 2 dozen surface scratches else very good. Framed. If you like this sort of thing this is the sort of thing you'll like. My take Carrie's Leia is one of the 2 late 1970s world-wide magnetic babe fantasies see page 19 in this catalog for the other but needless to say we don't number our pages. And speaking of babes when we do employment interviews at Biblioctopus we give the women a bite-sized Snickers. If they take the wrapper off before eating it we make them catalogers. If they eat it with the wrapper still on they get hired for Security. unknown books
