What's the weirdest typo/error you've seen in a book? (lemmy.world)

I’m currently reading “The Number of the Beast” by Robert Heinlein. Book is from the 1980s, and there’s a completely doubled up paragraph in the book! It spans two pages but the image shows enough I think.

I've never seen the movie, but apparently Bowie stole a lot of 'Stranger...' for 'The Man Who Fell To earth.'

Movies were a bit wilder back in the day. "Little Big Man" painted Custer as an incompetent psychopath and John Waters' "Female Trouble" ran in main stream movie houses.

Personally, I think a six to eight hour limited series would be the way to go.
