I saw one that said dust jacket, hard to find, and some just say pictorial hardback. Did it have one or not? Seems like yes. One also has an ISBN.

I've had some beautiful books that I learned were book club editions, though it didn't say so. The giveaway was no price on the jacket.

I didn't see a website with Hitchcock first edition info, but sounds like you have the right one. I did see a few other dates on Amazon (1972 being one and a paperback edition.)
