Hardcover. Zustand: Fair. 1st Edition. See photos for condition details. Hardcover, green cloth boards decorated in black on front and spine. Exterior shows edge and corner wear as well as spotting and light soiling from handling. The interior pages are toned due to age and some light foxing and spotting is noted.

For example: on the pages prior to the frontispiece there's a piece of torn paper between the portrait and the drawing of the handgun. At first it appeared this was a missing tissue guard but this page is also similar to other copies we've seen.
