Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Fair. First edition. ISBN Hardback. No dustjacket. First Printing. Tight sound copy with average wear, but pretty much a nice tight reading copy only due to owners names addresses and inscriptions on the endpapers as well as trimmed dustjacket information pasted in on those endpapers, underlining and notation to the interior text, and a bit of an old book odor, not really musty though. Card pocket pasted on the back endpaper as this is an Ex church library copy, but this is the only ex-library marking to the book. A nice reading / reference copy.
