Consistent with the first trade edition, this copy contains an embossed illustration on the front cover and embossed lettering on the spine, and the back cover is free of embossing. Shortly after publication, this copy was purchased by the library system in Ursula Le Guin's hometown of Portland, Oregon. It entered into Multnomah County Library's circulation at Portland's Midland branch on April 15th, 1969 and remained in circulation until its recent donation to the Friends Library Store. This unique copy contains vintage Portland, Oregon library stamps (see photos). Slight warp to the spine. Dust jacket price-clipped and in Mylar. Pages clean and unmarked. The aqua-colored cloth boards are frayed on the bottom edges and slightly on top. Slight wear to binding but still sound. A wonderful piece of fantasy and library history.
