I have a very nice copy (after having looked at what seems like hundreds of dust jackets of the book over the last 20 years). It's an off-white, and there is a rag fibre appearance in the jacket paper. I'll try and remember to post a scan tonight. Given that it was printed with war-time low quality paper, I suspect we'll not ever be certain what the original white was really like.
