A shopper had the shock of a lifetime after she bought a second-hand book and discovered a photograph of a naked man inside. 

She had bought what she thought was a biography on Indigenous rights activist, Charles Perkins, from the used book store Shiny Owls Books in Mona Vale, Sydney.

But as she was flicking through the pages, a nude photograph of an unknown man slipped out the back.

‘Has anyone else purchased a book from the Shiny Owl in Sydney and found this photo tucked inside the back page?’ she wrote to Facebook. 

The secondhand store’s manager, Niel McKernan, told Daily Mail Australia he wasn’t aware of the photograph.

‘Things get left in books all the time and I don’t tend to flick through them,’ he said.

‘I’ve found $50 in a book before but nothing like this.

‘This is the first time I’ve ever heard of anything like this being left.’
