God Emperor of Dune

No book-club tells are documented in the reference bibliographies for this title beyond the standard period conventions. Because the trade first has no printing statement to read, identification rests on the absence of any later-printing line, the 0-399-12593-0 ISBN, the quarter-black-cloth-over-grey-boards binding, and a Holland jacket priced at the flap; later Putnam printings add a printing statement or number line. The limited is unmistakable — signed limitation leaf, black cloth, no jacket, slipcase.
