Special presentation issue of the same first printing as the ordinary trade copy of this title, also in this collection (Reference Shelf) — identical text and copyright page, but bound in handcrafted “Mission Leather” by Brown and Bigelow of St. Paul, Minnesota, a division of Standard Packaging Corporation, as stated on its title page.
No dust jacket, as issued; the cover’s embossed title spells out “AND” where the dust-jacketed trade edition uses an ampersand. Original illustrations by Harry H-K Lange, one of the book’s three copyright holders; introduction by Frederick C. Durant III.
