Publisher's black cloth, spine lettered in gilt; white endpapers. In the original dust jacket designed by Steve and Julie Ridgeway, publisher's £7.95 price sticker to bottom corner of upper flap. Jacket bright and clean with only the faintest wear to extremities; extremely minimal, if any, fading and free from chips, or tears; price unclipped. Cloth exceptionally clean; spine gilt with a hint of rubbing; corners sharp. A little spotting to top edge and one or two isolated spots to fore-edge; bottom edge clean. Internally fresh and unmarked apart from the author's contemporary signature. Square, tight binding. Near fine, in a near fine dust jacket. A superior example, much cleaner and sharper than commonly encountered.
