Remarks: Garden City, NY: Doubleday & Company Ltd., 1968. First Edition (Stated). 8vo. 1/4 Cloth Over Boards in DJ. Fine/Near Fine. 235pp, no illustrations. This is the true very first trade edition of the quirky civil rights satire cum caper written collaboratively (and pseudonymously) by speculative fiction masters Thom Disch and John Sladek. A clean, tight, seemingly unread copy of this unique item that bears the authors' literary agent's stamp on the front free endpaper, as well as a note from the William Morris agency to Hollywood legend Allan Carr (!) laid in regarding the return of the book - obviously ignored. One can only wonder what the producer of 'Grease' And 'Can't Stop the Music' might have done with this civil-rights novel in bringing it to the screen... LC 68-22503.
