Gilbert notes that the American dust jackets, from Live and Let Die to Doctor No, are "often" or "invariably" clipped, with the printed price retained elsewhere on the jacket, as here. The Spy Who Loved Me is price-clipped. A very good set in similar dust jackets; generally bright and presenting very nicely.
