Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good Plus. 1st Edition. Stated First Printing, First Edition. As you can see from the photos, the covers are exceptionally clean and, perhaps remarkably, free of wear. The corners and edges do not have any rubbing. The spine ends are in excellent shape. The red lettering on the spine is quite bright. The book is square and very solidly bound from cover to cover, with nicely tight pages, absolutely no binding issues. The top page edge is tinted pinkish red. There is one white stain and this has caused a little bit of a pinkish spot to come over the top edge of around ten consecutive pages. It's very small and far away from the print. The middle page edge is deckled. I think it has a few light spots, because there are two or three instances where a tiny spot just peeks out over the outer edge of a page. The pages are very clean. I scrolled through a number of times without finding any instances of direct soiling onto the actual pages. I'm also not seeing any creasing or dogeared corners. A handful of the deckled (rough-edged) edges have a few slightly jagged areas. I would imagine this is the case with other copies as well. There are no markings anywhere in the book. There are no attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. You can see the dust jacket in the first three photos. I've had it in a fitted protective cover for as long as I've owned the book. There is some light white fogging, perhaps smooth rubbing, on the front cover. There are couple small tears off the front top edge, a crease off the bottom front edge. The spine is faded. The spine ends look for rather good. The rear white cover has some spotting adjacent to the spine and middle edge, perhaps a little handling soiling. It doesn't seem to have any tears. The flaps look very good, no tears, no creases, maybe a little toning. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. About 'Mame': It was called "Broadway's best musical" by Time Magazine, Life Magazine, and The New Yorker.…
