Book value

Hi all. I am new to this forum and I have a question. My sister gave me a "Talisman" book she found at a yard sale. The book is in pretty poor shape. Spine is broken. Pages are good with no writing on them. It has an inscription and signature. "For Pam --- Hope this scares yal but not quite to death! ). Stephen King 11/17/84

Dust jacket says $18.95 and I don't know how to grade them. I was wondering if it is worth anything? Thank you.

Too bad the book is in such poor condition, because, if the signature is authentic, it could be worth some money. If you can, please post a picture of the signature so we can tell if it's authentic or not. If it's not, the book is virtually worthless. If it is, the condition of the book makes a big difference.

Sorry about all the white. I haven't figured out how to do it quite right yet. Anyway, that is on the very first page when you open the book. Thanks for the help.

So does anyone know if it is authentic? I have more pics of the book if you need to see them. Thanks.
