Classic anthology edited by J.J. Pierce featuring Cordwainer Smith’s most memorable tales. Ballantine paperback with colorful illustrated cover, yellowed page edges and reading wear consistent with age. Spine shows light creasing; covers intact with minor edge scuffs and corner bumping. Interior pages are tanned but clean and legible; binding remains secure. Ideal for collectors of vintage sci‑fi paperbacks or readers seeking seminal mid‑20th century short fiction. See photos for exact cosmetic details and wear.
