- "COLLECTOR'S EDITION" (over) "Bound in Genuine Leather" stated on the title page.
- "The special contents of this edition are copyright © 1990 by The Easton Press..." stated on the copyright page. No stated date of publication.
- This is a signed limited edition of an unknown number of copies and was available by subscription only.
- Signature sheet follows the front loose endpaper and prints this statement: "This leather-bound Easton Press Collector's Edition is personally signed by George Zebrowski" below which is the author's signature.

- No ISBN, no printed price, and no dustjacket as issued.
- The uncredited illustrative cover design is repeated on the back.
- Pages are gilt-edged and there is a gold satin ribbon bookmark bound into the book.
- The double-page frontispiece, credited on the title page and the copyright page, is on the pages following the signature and before the title page.
- Unusual for this series, the frontispiece by Sternbach was not originally commissioned for this edition. It reproduces the dustjacket art of the Harper & Row first edition, but without text.
- There are five full-page B&W illustrations printed on numbered pages, but no indication that they were commissioned by Easton Press, since there is a single 1979 copyright for the artwork.
- The introduction appears on unnumbered pages, so the pages before Page 1 have been added to the record in order to place it.
- "Collector's Notes" (uncredited) are on a double-sided laid-in sheet.
- This edition is a facsimile reprint of the 1979 Harper & Row edition.
- Verified copy was purchased for approximately $40.00 from the publisher.
