The $9.95 price on the dustjacket is the price of the unsigned edition.  The 500-copy signed edition went for $14.95 retail.  Author's Co-Op was basically Perry A. Chapdelaine and he used a single jacket on both editions of the book.  This information comes from the original solicitation letter from my files (I was a bookseller and we carried the book new at the time).  Unsigned copies were available but the print-run is unknown.
