Lippincott HC/DJ 1st edition, 1st printing. Soundly bound and clean in original color pictorial dust jacket with publisher's $4.95 issue price intact to unclipped front flap. Jacket appears to have at one time been protected by an older style brodart like cover with trace remanants of the adhesives used to seal the mylar on the endpages. Jacklet flap folds a little relaxed and spine perhaps a trifle sunned, Bright clean and attractive copy.
