The first 225 being a numbered, slipcased edition" and "International Standard Book No. / 0-915368-33-1 (regular edition) / 0-915368-88-9 (slipcased edition)". The jacket flyleaves repeat the limited edition statement but also add that the 225 slipcased copies were "... specially bound, and autographed."
