First hardcover edition and an early attempt to establish a gay and lesbian cannon (collecting many 50s and 60s fiction paperback originals together with pioneering scholarly works). Orange boards faintly printed with "The Arno Series on Homosexuality". Small light/speckling to boards. Light age-darkening to spine. Some speckling/foxing to edges of text block and EPs. Binding square and solid. Possible faint marijuana-odor (not bad but if you're not tolerant pass this one by).
