This is the First Softcover/Large Trade Paperback Edition. This rare treasure has some very clearly visible wear/age, but when considering its' scarcity and desirability, is still in Highly Desirable, Highly Collectible condition! The wear, however, is considerable and should be carefully examined/considered BEFORE buying. The book appears to be gently read and has no internal writing, no remainder marks, no missing pages and is NOT Ex-Libris. The binding has some very clearly visible wear, but is still holding tight. Both of the fragile covers are attached but one can clearly see some rips/pulling away. The book should be opened/handled with care to avoid further damage and possible separation of both the front and rear covers. Once again, if not handled with care, both of the covers could separate and become detached. Some general/shelf/age wear along with creases/scuffing/rips/marks/wear to the front cover/rear cover/spine, marks/wear to the edge/fore pages and creases/marks/discoloration/wear to the pages, NOT affecting the text. Please note the wear to the front cover/rear cover/spine. The wear is particularly noticeable near/along the edges and at the corners. The rips and creases are particularly extensive and the large rip on the front cover/upper right hand corner has resulted in some loss of paper/cover. Please also note the wear that is present on the pages, varying in size and severity and particularly noticeable on certain pages! All of the wear previously mentioned is considerable and very clearly visible! The wear should be carefully examined/considered BEFORE buying. We tend to grade the condition of our books rather harshly and took into consideration any and all wear when determining the value of this rare book. We purposely and closely photographed what we consider to be the most obvious and egregious wear. Once again, we want to reiterate that the wear is considerable and VERY clearly visible! All of the wear should be carefully examined/considered BEFORE buying. Numerous photographs from various angles have been taken for your consideration/inspection. Please closely and carefully view ALL the pictures for further clarification!! Payment must be received within three days or the book will be re-listed. Please feel free to contact us with any and all questions. We are very proud of our 100% positive feedback/ranking and offer an easy, no questions asked return policy so you can buy with confidence!
