Inscribed and signed by the authors thus: "To Dick, Eleanor & Ricky / with our best regards / Don and Jean". Also signed by Fred M. Mazzulla and Jo Mazzulla who have provided the illustrations from their collection. --- In patterned cream paper-covered boards backed in green cloth, with titling in gilt to spine.
