Only the D/J...the book within is in far better shape, belying its age. Then again, that's what D/Js are for--sacrifice the cosmetics, to save the beauty underneath!

Yeah, the one I had was an original. Harder to find, too.

Mines got a protective cover on, most of my better books have, a local book store in town does it for me.

Did you notice a few more RN DD books I added onto to my reference list on here?

Can you think of anymore?
