First edition published December 1, 1982 (Showa 57). This is a valuable first edition of the first volume, published 40 years ago. The cover shows some scuffing, minor scratches, and creases from storage, and there is slight yellowing on the top, bottom, and side edges of the pages. The inside pages have some light staining, but there are no issues with reading. The cover has been disinfected with alcohol. I have many other items for sale. #AmbassadorBooks
