The front edges of the covers are slightly chipped and the front cover is heavily creased. 52 pages, each printed on one side only, consisting of 3 pages printed on light gray stock with the first being on Omni letterhead and with Omni embossed in silver at top left of the next 2 pages.

These pages include reproductions of the illustrations which accompanied the stories. There is some light creasing to the first page, else an internally bright and near fine prospectus in good covers. In his introduction to the prospectus, Ben Bova writes: "In the ten years I have been editing science fiction, first at Analog and now at Omni, dozens of stories I bought have won Hugo, Nebula, and other awards.

Nahin's "The Reunion", John Morressy's "The Last Jerry Fagin Show", etc.…
