Description

Large hardcover bound in royal octavo dark blue sewn cloth binding lettered on spine in gold. 245pp., Customized dust-jacket produced by former owner [?] shows portions of front, rear and spine covering of this novel mounted on backing and protected by reinforced mylar cover. Mylar cover affixed to inside of boards. [N.B. Ersatz dust-jacket art-work reads “1st Time in Paperback” but does not list publisher, artwork appears to blown up images of softbound covers.] As best we can surmise this may be an early print on demand copy. Former owner’s bookplate has been printed on last page, strongly suggesting this is a privately printed copy. A very clean, square, unmarked copy. Only flaw is that mylar covers have been pasted to inside covers, else as new. Fine in an interesting and not unattractive wrapper. Surely a unique copy. Scans sent on request.
