The original first edition dust jacket has benefited from very slight restoration to the spine tips by an expert paper conservator and as such presents in stunning near fine condition. The jacket has unusually strong vibrant colors with a touch of the typical toning to the rear panel. Otherwise the jacket has no edgewear, no chips, no rubbing, no fading, no stains and no foxing. The jacket is NOT price clipped and has a stated price of $4.95. Beautiful stunning jacket! Please see detailed images.
A sharp attractive copy of this scarce Hugo award winning title with a vibrant striking, unclipped dust jacket. Presents beautifully on the shelf and would make a perfect gift for a Zelazny collector.
