Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Poor. 1st Edition. First Edition ( 'First published in 1955' ). Signed and inscribed by the author. You can see the covers in the three photos I've provided. They have light soiling, not much. There is little bit of loss at the bottom edge of the spine, a little rub-through at a… couple corners. The book is slightly slanted forward. The covers are solidly bound. The pages are decently bound. There are no cracks or spaces between any of them. You can see the photo of the signed page as well as the facing inside cover. There's a good deal of foxing on these two pages, also on the next one. After that not much. There is a little bit of soiling, possibly foxing on some of the pages near the gutter. There isn't much other soiling. I saw one red checkmark next to a paragraph. I'm not seeing any other writing. There are no attachments. No markings. The dust jacket is rated poor. I've provided a photo where you can see the entire jacket. Drawings by Haro (illustrator). Inscribed by Author(s).
