About This Item
New York, NY Random House: Vintage, 1981. Paperback First Edition Thus [1981]; so stated. First Edition Thus [1981]; so stated. Very Good+ to Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: the pages have tanned somewhat, due to aging; else only the faintest wear to the outside edges and mild rubbing to the panels. Two tiny tears at the top edge of the front panel and a spot nearby - and another small scar at the outside edge of the rear panel. The binding is square and secure; the text is clean. Free of creases. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A handsome, nearly-new copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing the mildest wear and several minor, unobtrusive flaws. Remains close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (8 x 5.25 x 0.65 inches). 223 pages. Language: English. Weight: 9.1 ounces. V-683. Trade Paperback.
