Stunning looking books here … but where’s volume 1?!

That’s not a 2nd imp. TT, mind.

And it’s not a first state RK, neither.

Right you are garm , it's a 3rd since there is no year printed on the title page.

Sorry, Mr Underhill, I was editing my post while you were posting.

Did any of these mis-marked 3rd impressions come with 3rd impression dust jackets? This is the second one now in a week I’ve seen with a 2nd impression jacket.

[Update: remy pointed out to me that David Miller has one in a 3rd impression jacket. So they come in both flavors I guess.]

Another good catch garm, I see the quotes on the rear flap.
