Brick red cloth with gilt spine titles. Light shelf wear. Price-clipped jacket with negligible wear. A beautiful copy in fine condition offered in a custom clamshell case. The beautiful cloth-covered case features a morocco spine label with gilt titles.
Of particular note is that this copy has retained the original publisher's dust jacket band reading "Gollancz SF Gollancz Choice for March".

From the Robert and Diane Yaspan Collection.
