I am so happy to have paid only $75 for this AMAZING book of the master of mastur. When it arrived, I ripped open the cardboard Amazon shipper, hot acid juices roaring in my throat, my mind raced waiting to see the interior of a Terry book. His childhood photos for petesake! The magician of weinered snapshots! I flipped thur the glorious pages for what seemed like an eternity of....3 min. That was it...I was spent. I really recommend you buy 2 in case one explodes due to sheer creative energies colliding with marxist ideals....heavy stuff.
