Presumed first edition (no direct statement provided) - "Waterfront Edition Limited To a Thousand Autographed Copies . . ." (limitation statements on dj front flap and upon title page). SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. Unpaged - approximately 120 pages. Hardcover: H 19.25cm x L 14cm. Orange dust jacket rubbed with some soiling and staining; spine toned; nicks and short tears at edges.
