Would this be worth something on ebay?
I've got a paperback book that was purchased from a used bookstore for $4 a few years ago. Between page 112 and 113 is a one-leaf two-sided advertisement that was apparently put in the book by the publisher. The book is about schools, teachers, and a bit of child psychology. The advertisement is for "True" brand cigarettes. The advertisement is color: green, blue, black, and white that is whiter than the other pages in the book.

1. Can't be between pp. 112 - 113.

2. I have the book in my lap as I type this.

Page 112 is on the left. The next page on the right is the advertisement. I flip the page and I see the other side of the advertisement on the left and page 113 on the right.

Anyway, it seems ironic that a book about education was thought to target an appropriate audience for cigarette advertising.

Also, most paperback books that I've seen don't contain any advertising.

The book is Copyright MCMLXXI.
