This is a FIRST EDITION with a DJ. Some chipping to the dust jacket as seen in the photos. Is NOT PRICE CLIPPED. No fading on the spine.  It is complete and in one piece. It has a Mylar protective cover as do most of my books. The book itself is in FINE shape. Very tight binding, no loose pages, no missing pages and no writing. Has 180 CLEAN pages.Sits square with no "sliding" of the pages. No odors. No twisting of the covers. NOT A LIBRARY BOOK!  FYI-If you are a fan of the Babe I have other Ruth items available. Will be shipped in a crush resistant box.
