Signed, with no personalization or inscription, by author George Alec Effinger on its title page. This book is in very good condition, marred only by a 1.5" black felt-tip pen mark, and remainder spray, on bottom of its text block, plus light bumps on its spine ends. Its binding is sound and square, with no spine crease. Covers are unmarked and otherwise unworn. Pages are unworn and otherwise unmarked. Its dust jacket, now protected by a removable mylar cover, is in near fine condition: whole, bright, and unmarked, with some traces of wear on spine ends but otherwise unworn.
