About This Item
New York: Dutton, 1984. First Edition. New. First Printing. About Fine in a Near Fine, unclipped jacket. The book is sharp, and notably absent the remainder mark which seems to have plagued most copies of this title. The jacket still retains the original $16.95 price, and the spine is completely unfaded. A sharp example, other than some negligible rubbing around the edges and a single 1/4" closed tear.
