This book had a mystique with me as a kid, I think it took me a year or so to find a copy. When I finally found a copy, I was so excited that I did not realize the copy I found was a second printing. I was disappointed, this would never be worth more than the fist printing. That was my thought in 1995, now I prize this more than the first print. I'm also partial to the baby blue and white title logo variant on this second printing of the coloring of the first print.
