INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR as "Charlie" Chan...POW 52 (there seems to have been an attempt to wash out the numerals '52' with water or such, but they remain legible. First Edition (1986), unstated, but implied: no subsequent printings noted, according to Presidio's customary practice. Very Good+ to Near Fine in Very Good+ DJ: Both book and DJ show indications of very careful use. Book shows just a touch of foxing to the top edge, fore-edge and rear endpapers; a tiny "divot" at the bottom edge of the text block, where a tiny pebble or such had become lodged between the pages; the binding is square and secure; the text is clean. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of any underlining, hi-lighting or marginalia or marks in the text. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A handsome copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing minor, unobtrusive flaws. Bright and Clean. Not far from "As New". The DJ shows a touch of wear to the head of the backstrip and to the upper rear corner tip: mild overall rubbing; a couple of tiny snags; a couple of small, faint stains; the price is unclipped; mylar-protected. Clean, intact, and attractive. Close to "As New" NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (9.3 x 6.2 x 0.8 inches). xi, 138 pages. Illustrated with numerous duotone photographs and maps. Language: English. Weight: 16.6 ounces. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR.
