Inscription in blue pen on the first free endpaper reads, "John - a small thank you for a marvellous film, Stan, Oct 1971", presumably referring to the movie. Barstow has also signed his name on the titlepage in same pen. Edges of the pages toned with some light spotting. With the slightly foxed and toned dust-jacket, not price-clipped. Together with an uncorrected proof copy of the book citing provisional publication date as November 1, 1971, with card dust-jacket.
