This is actually a UK pressing with a leaf bound in, reading: ""This copy...is part of the first English Edition. In deference to the wishes of collectors it is issued with the English imprint solely, but it is published in the United States by arrangement with the author and the English publishers by Dodd, Mead & Company, New York.""
