Stan Veit's History of the Personal Computer - hardback, first printing 1993

It was priced $12.48, but clearanced for $1.00. Because of the look of the book and the immaculate unread condition I assumed it was some re-print or newer release chronicling the history, but I flipped through it and saw that it covered some of the material I was interested in, like early Atari, TRS-80, Commodore, TI, and Apple so I decided to get it anyway. Doing some quick online research, this is a true first printing from 1993, hardback edition, in perfect, unread, unyellowed condition.

I know there are a lot of book experts out there (like Brett) who might know more about this. Has anyone seen one of these sell or might know a realistic "non-Amazon" price?

thanks!
