First Edition with 15 Discolored pages?

[thompainter]

I came across a first edition novel (late 80's) and it has 15 pages of a different colored page stock. I'm curious if anyone else has come across this. Please let me know.

I don't recall ever being asked about that before. What was the title of the book?

I've seen copies of 1st editions of the Stand that have different shades of paper in them, some with only a few (maybe 50 or so) and some with 100 or more.

The different color is more likely the result of a group of pages which have changed color as they aged. Especially the Doubleday books, which are badly made. I have seen such a thing before, but I'll have to go now and check to see if it's in my SK collection, of not. Tommyknockers is my guess.....
