Redwood City, CA: Johnson Meyers, 1964. First Edition. Fine/Near Fine. First edition. Two volumes bound in tan cloth with maroon lettering, housed in original slipcase. Fine in Near Fine dust jackets with small tears at heads, housed in Very Good slipcase with rubbing and light wear. Lacking glassine jacket-protectors.
