A very good, clean, tight copy in similar jacket. Original publisher's brown boards - gilt embossed to the spine - this particular copy is stamped with 'BCA' (book club associates) to the tail of the spine so obviously a copy distributed by the book club. There are no other BCA markings. A light bump to the head of the spine and a bump to the lower front board corner. The jacket has not been price-clipped - it has some shelf wear, some rubbing to the corners and some creasing to the jacket at the head of the spine. There is also a slight open nick to one corner of the jacket. A very good plus clean, tight copy in very good jacket.
