Actually, I wish you would have pointed this one out earlier...I emailed the seller asking for some specific pics, but the auction's over so he's probably lost interest. It went far too high for me to bid on just for research purposes...(David...look closely at the truncated bottom of the GK logo on Volume 2...this may be another one of our affectionately designated "5A" )
Q: Hi, could you tell me please if the sides of the box are a brown wood-effect colour, or are white? And, if white, does it have a "collectors edition" flash in red on the front of the box please? Thanks in advance, Malcolm 09-Jun-05 A: Well, I think the box was white once upon a time, but is in a terrible state as it has been water and sun damaged, and is split and peeling as well. To be honest, it just looks beige/pale brown now and I don't know if that's the original colour or due to the damage. Just to top it off, it's got a rubber band melted across half of the lid. No collectors edition flash though.

It features a truncated GK logo (the tips on the bottom of the K are missing). It also has a grid-pattern cardstock, but that's hard to confirm in the auction photo, I'm trying to enhance the photo for detail quite literally as we speak. There are far numerous textual differences as well. We're not calling it a separate printing, we thought it to be perhaps a proof copy or a test printing or whatnot. Most likely whatnot.
