Hard Cover. First Edition. Hardcover with price clipped dust jacket, 200 pages; gently used ex-library copy with mylar-protected DJ secured to covers, no shelf wear to covers other than gentle bumps to spine ends, spine ever so slightly slanted but very tight in binding, tiny four-letter library stamp to top edge, full library name rubber stamp, remains of date slip and index card all on free front endpaper, tiny numerical stamp and date stamp "JAN 13 1976" (just after publication) on title page, otherwise very clean and unmarked throughout; the DJ mylar protector can be removed but only by causing damage inside both covers where it is glued to the endpapers (the two flaps are remarkably fresh and bright, the McGee portrait on the front flap brilliantly colourful, so there is reason to believe the whole DJ is the same although possibly with some gentle bumping along the top and bottom edges).
