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.
Triple Zeck (1974):
- The dustjacket has some unique features:
- The front flap has the price ($8.95) at the top and "0774" near the bottom.
- The back flap has four lines of printing (publisher address and information) right above where it says "Printed in USA".
- The back cover has "Viking Press/Publishers/New York" and "SBN 670-73130-7" on it.
- The title page and copyright page are NOT different at all between the two editions.
- The first edition has a black cover with gold lettering on the spine and the book club edition is shinier and smoother.
- I have included an animated GIF file that compares many of the relevant points for a clearer understanding.
- I also have a video on our YouTube channel you can watch here
