This was printed several times in 1970 with the exact same Impression as the first printing so you will see a wide range of prices asked for this book. The true first printing is known only by looking at the ISBN number on this book (see close up of the picture of this in the image gallery attached to this post). In this case, we have a first edition, first printing.
There are no splits or seam separation, everything is tight to binding. Missing original DJ. Notable fading to cloth binding otherwise in quite-Good-condition.
All 331 pages clean and unmarked except one gift annotation from a previous owner written on the front endpaper.
Illustrations quite wild and mesmerizing!
