Book is overall in good condition with minimal signs of wear. An interesting copy as it has a 1st Print number line but is thinner than the normal 1st edition copies. According to the Internet Speculative Fiction Database this issue was intended as a library only printing and only a few hundred copies were printed as a run-on to the book club edition. See below ISFDB record: "First published 1990" First printing by number line 13579108642 The ISBN is on the copyright page only All data on the copyright page is for the UK edition but the book spine and jacket have the ROC colophon. There is no price or barcode on the jacket, book would have had a sticker "According to the publisher, this was intended as a 'library only' printing and so only a few hundred copies were printed, a run-on to the book club edition." - from Locus1. Extra sheets from the above library run may have been bound in Canada for this edition as the book is narrower and taller than a typical US/CDN edition
