Do you have this classic text The Unix Programming Environment? (still one of my faves). It's very commonly reproduced with different covers; at various times, i think i have owned 3 different covers. If you have it and it has a different cover do you mind taking a picture or linking to one on the internet?
#Unix

[please boost]

A book cover, blue type on a white background. The title "The UNIX Programming Environment" is set in all-caps in a very 1970s geometric sans serif (Avant Garde Gothic?), one word per line, and so tight that sometimes the glyphs do touch. The word "UNIX" in the title is super bold. The authors, Brian W. Kernighan and Rob Pike, are set smaller in the same font.

@drj mine is very similar, I guess they accidentally printed the whole thing upside down. All the pages are upside down too, and it opens to the right not the left. Quite the blunder at the printers.
