Yesterday I bought a bunch of playtest goodies at my local game store, when I got home and unwrapped my leather rulebook I discovered it was misprinted or more accurately, mismounted. The cover is on upside/backwards. I talked to my shop and they had heard of a few instances of this happening but my feeble attempts to search for anything on the web or on the forums have yielded me with zero additional info.
Anyone hear of this happening or have it happen to yourself?
Any chance this was done intentionally to a few copies as easter eggs of some sort?
Inquiring minds would appreciate your collective effort/input.
Have a good night/morning.

Maybe it will be line one of those upside down Lincoln pennies and be worth a lot more money down the line.
I doubt it... playtest books are already showing up at the used bookstore I frequent, and several stores I've visited still have copies of the special edition, and other playtest materials in stock.

I have a copy of the Leather Playtest book and it's fairly useless for actually playing the game at this point (it's a HUGE pain the way the sections are organized and as of errata 1.4 a lot of the rules are just totally irrelevant or changed).
If it's any consolation, I'd rather have yours for the extra "cool" easter egg factor. It's really just a novelty item at this point (it's still fine for rules referencing NOT for character creation though in some cases, like conditions).
Hello folks!
We have seen this binding mistake a few times, although for the size of print run, it seems to be fairly uncommon. If you would like a replacement, I would hope that your local game store was able to help you out! They can get reimbursement through distribution. If they do not, we can help you out with this!
Personally, this is my favorite printing error, because if you read the book in public, you appear to be holding the book upside down to read, and that amuses me greatly.
