Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. "First published by MICHAEL JOSEPH LTD" on the copyright page of this UK hardcover, so the first edition per Currey and ISFDB. This book is in very good condition, marred only by a UK bookstore sticker on its front pastedown, a label removal scrape on its front end paper, slight lean, and light bumps on its spine ends. Its binding is sound, with no spine crease. Covers are unmarked and otherwise unworn, with bright gilt titles on its spine. Pages are unmarked and unworn, with no apparent age toning. Its dust jacket, now protected by a removable mylar cover, is also in very good condition: bright and unmarked, with a price-clipped front flap, a 1/2" closed tear in its front top edge, and some very light wear on its spine ends, but otherwise whole and unworn. 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.
