Finally!
Yesterday, after years of looking, I finally found a first of Jerzy Kosinski's
"Being There". Fine in a fine dust jacket. It was a very good day. I also got: Stephen King, Pet Sematary, first printing in first state dust jacket (fine and vg) Gunter Grass, Cat and Mouse, 1st US Edition, fine in vg dust jacket. Francis A. Miniter

What is the first state DJ. Inquiring minds want to know! Hi Bob: It's a stated first edition on the copyright page with the date on the title page (1983) agreeing with the date on the copyright. The dust jacket first state is indicated by the $15.95 price and the blurb on the back about the author which mentions "his wife Tabitha (author of the well-received fantasy novel Small World and, in 1982, of Caretakers)" . And the year "1982" is an error. It should say "1983". Inner flap bottom of the DJ has the coded date 1183. Francis A. Miniter
