Fine, fresh copies in equally fine dust jackets.

We have heard reports (unconfirmed) that a third volume will be published after 2009.

Printed bookplate of Smithsonian curator James G. Mead to each volume. Lighter's dictionary, the first of its kind devoted to American slang, was projected to run to fou…r volumes, but the project was terminated by Random House in 1997 after only the first two volumes had been published. As of 2022, the final two volumes have yet to be published, though Oxford University Press has reputedly taken on responsibility for completing the work.
