Description

A very good copy in a price-clipped dust jacket printed black with white type, rather than the original pale-green type. This Second State jacket was issued in 1961 to wrap books bound from First Edition sheets left unbound in 1953. The jacket is considerably rarer than the original First Edition. It is here preserved in very good condition, save for 2-inches of loss at the spine tail and a chipped upper front right corner. The contents are fine.
