Are these 2nd editions? Too new to be True Firsts, so I assume 1st print of a later edition.

Just grabbed it. Nice price for this one. Seems to have been sent to Anita Silvey, Editor-in-Chief of The Horn Book Magazine. She will become vice-president at Houghton Mifflin in 1995.

Ah yes, nice catch there. Congratulations. I thought about this one before posting it, but I already have a HMCO S ARC, and just caught a big fish myself. Post coming soon...
