No book-club edition tells for this title are documented in the sources consulted. Standard Knopf-era discriminators apply: a first printing states "First Edition" on the copyright page, and the boards should be the purple-and-white patterned paper — a copy in plain cloth, or lacking the copyright-page statement, is a later printing or a club/reprint issue. Because no blind-stamp or club-specific point is attested for this title, do not infer club status from binding alone without the copyright page.
