About This Item
W. W. Norton, 1964. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. A clean tight copy of the stated first edition. Evidently a souvenir of a trip to SF, as there are four contemporary postcards and cards from specialty Asian importers taped to the front endpaper. Bit of shelfwear on bottom edges. Jacket (in acetate wrapper) is price-clipped, with owner's label. We ship all books promptly, carefully, and securely in sturdy cartons, never in mailing bags.
