New York: Arbor House, 1980. 1st Edition. Cloth. Near Fine/Fine/Fine. 8vo., 281pp. Beautiful First Edition with no other printings indicated as called for by this publisher. This is one of 500 copies, this being #405, with a tipped in limitation bookplate signed by the author. Square, tight and clean throughout with just a touch of wear to the crown but quite minor. Equally attractive unclipped dust-jacket ($9.25), is fresh and bright with no chipping, creases or tears. Laid in is a typed letter with original envelope with a promotional offering for signed copies. It appears to have had an order form at the bottom which was likely used to procure this copy. It is signed but looks to be a stamp. A very pretty copy.
