Collecting tips:

I can't read Hebrew, and apparently neither could the copy editor who arranged to have the Hebrew dedication in her first book A Grave Talent (1993) printed upside down. Nevertheless, we'll both have to figure it out, if we want to make sure we have the first issue, before the mistake was corrected. The second issue isn't worthless, but its still worth just a fraction of the first.
