Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. This is an ex-library book in fully readable good condition, with a lovely dust jacket in shelf-worthy very good condition. "First edition", full printing line with "A", "Copyright (c) 1987", LCCN 83-647399, and ISBN on its copyright page, with publisher's original "$19.95" price on its jacket's front flap. The book is marred only by spine lean, a slightly concave spine, a card pocket on its back endpaper, a blind stamp on its title page, "Mount Vernon Public Library" stamp in the bottom margin of a few pages, light wear on its spine ends, and some light soiling in page margins and on edges of the page block, none of which obscures any text. Its binding is sound. Pages are otherwise unmarked. Its dust jacket, now protected by a removable mylar cover, is whole, marred only by a faint "label ghost" on its spine, traces of wear on its spine ends, and some very light toning along its top edge, but otherwise bright, unmarked, and unworn. As with all Space Age Book purchases, I will ship this book in a moisture proof zip-loc bag, padded in bubble wrap, inside a sturdy box to assure it reaches its new owner in the same condition as my description.
