Atlas Shrugged

Ayn Rand · Random House, New York · 1957

No title-specific book-club issue points were corroborated in the sources consulted, so none are asserted. The generic tells apply and are what to check: a blind stamp — an uninked impression visible only at a raking angle, typically a small circle, square, dot or triangle — pressed into the rear board near the spine; no price printed at the jacket flap; boards of thick paper rather than cloth; thinner or uncoated jacket stock; white rather than colored endpapers. The independent reprint check also applies: if the spine foot names a house other than Random House, the copyright page's claims are irrelevant.
