Black Cloth. Condition: VG+. Dust Jacket Condition: VG. 1st ed. xv+404, a few text figs; blue letter 'J' stamped on t.p., bottom front endpaper has patch of surface loss due to an adhesion of jacket wraparound, other wise virtually pristine in clean unworn covers; unclipped jacket clean with minimal hints fo edge-rubbing, small patch of surface paper loss to front wraparound. A very nice copy despite 'J' on t.p. which I suspect was a publisher's storage mark o0f some kind.
