DAMN!  That beats the $25 I paid for that very same edition about 15
years ago!  Black binding, gold scrollwork, red banners on the spine?  I
love it, and have noticed a few missing words (the dirty ones, you know) 
but for the most part, it has answered every question I went to it for.  
	YOU LUCKY DOG!

only slightly envious, but glad you found it!
