(Goldstone A3a) Please note that while there are facsimile dust jackets that may be purchased to pair with this book, it is not our practice to include these with our books, as in general they are used to camoflauge flaws and dress up lower grade books. Such facsimile jackets are usually available for about $20. We will leave that matter to you, kind reader. VG- thus
