This detail page shows several photos of the book to show what a first edition looks like. The images are original photos taken of my personal copy of the first edition book.

- The dustjacket has some unique features:
- The front flap has the price ($3.50) at the top and "The Viking Press New York" in red closer to the bottom.
- The back flap on the book club edition is blank.
- The title page has "1955" on it for the first edition only.
- The copyright page has the Library of Congress catalog number above "Printed in USA".
- The first edition cover is green with red lettering and graphicson the cover and spine, same as the book club edition.
