About This Item
Times Books (Division of Random House), New York, 1988 An exceptional hardcover copy of the first edition/first printing, with dustcover: book fine and dustcover as new. Black cloth-covered boards, gilt spine lettering, blind-stamped front board, 8 x 10 inches, 167 pp., numerous b/w photos by Ansel Adams. The book is as new, except for a small sticker ghost on the lower spine aspect of the front free endpaper. Pages clean and binding tight and square; appears unread. Dustcover as new, not price-clipped; now in mylar jacket. The copyright page shows "First Edition" and a number line from 2 to 9. Since the copyright page states that Times Books is a division of Random House, I interpret this as a first edition/first printing. (K075). 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/As New.
