Seller's Description:
Very Good. 4to-over 9¾"-12" tall. 1st edition in soft cover format, 4to, 1343pp, card covers; this copy has a red "damaged" stamp to the reverse of the title page-naturally the stamp seems to be the only damage but then publishers and public librarians seem rather compulsive when it comes to stamps, o/w certainly VG+ Copy, most would say Fine.
