First edition hardback in a first state blue binding (as per Chalker/Owings), a Fine- copy with slight bumping at heel and a trace of rubbing to band at heel, in a Near Fine dust jacket with slight creasing and abrasion wear at heel, slight fading to red lettering on spine, tiny trace rubs to front, and a few small spots of dust soiling to white rear cover; overall, a very nice copy. Currey, page 268. Chalker/Owings, page 162 (“The first interstellar journey, financed by making it a TV spectacular”). Kemp, The Anthem Series, page 47.
