This is the American Non-first edition/printing of JRR Tolkien’s “Silmarillion.” The dust jacket has easy marks to determine — inner front jacket does not have a price; back of the jacket does not have ISBN numbers. While the copyright page states “American First Edition” and printing runs, one must check the back panel of the hardcover for indention mark. In this instance, if it has a “star”, then we know it’s not first printing. Finally, there are no broken (cut off) text on the right margin of page 229; 1st/1st edition shows broken text on that page.
