General Notes

Collectors Notes As many as half of the first print run went to libraries, unless sold as a library copy check carefully for signs of replaced end papers and erased stamps / marks.  Books that have spent much of their life without a dust jacked tend to have faded red text to the spine and the red heart also fades.
