I would like to see inside the front cover to make sure that it is not a 1985 reprint that is quite worn for its age and that someone has torn the second and third pages out of. Those are the only two pages that I know of that show that it's a reprint.( in writing that is ) In such a case the seller might not know that it's a reprint. If pages inside the covers are straight green then it's a reprint. The pages inside the covers of the originals are green with a floral pattern.

I own a poor condition Porter, I posed pics in an earlier thread. I have contacted and recieved response from the seller. I am confident this is an original. Now I just need to come up with the extra scratch. :shock:

The seller updated the item to show the end papers. Just an FYI.
