Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Stated First American Edition. Good in good DJ. DJ is not price clipped; small tears and a larger chip at the head of the spine; some sort of sticker on the spines, which could be a library sticker, although there are no other stamps or stickers typical of ex-library books, so I'm not sure. Blue cloth binding is a bit faded along the top edge. Top stain was probably once a prettier color (we were all prettier 60 years ago). Seller Inventory # 001520
