Seller's Description:
Good Plus in Good jacket. 1st Printing. Has a gutter crack to inside where it appears to have been neatly glued once but still needs a little more if desired, light wear no markings. All is tight and not really that bad looking-considering its rarity when found signed. First edition stated on copyright page and first printing indicated with number 1 in line. Signed in ink with just his name on the blank end paper: "John A. Wheeler" and then in different thin felt pen in his typical style he has inscribed on the title page: "Happy Days to Dorothy John A Wheeler 15 Oct 1998"
