Three issues exist. Two in black boards - the first priced 16s, the second priced 18s. Thirdly in the late '60s the last copies were issued in purple boards with a decimal price sticker. The present copy has all the requisite first issue points. Burgess' best known book and although he was of the opinion Earthly Powers was his masterpiece, like many authors on the matter he was wrong. Clockwork Orange is far, far more than the source book for a great film, it remains a tremendous work in its own right.
