O.K., I went ahead and removed the Green tape, very carefully after heating with hair dryer to try and loosen it some. Came off pretty easily, only lifting a very small bit of paper. Whew!
The Spine is Light Pink with title and Publisher written in Light Green. The portions of the spine that goes onto the front & back covers is still the pink, with little green flowers with black dots in the center of each.
There is no number on the spine. Nor anywhere on the book for that matter. (just the numbers mentioned above inside the front cover (A100100).

You did not state a size to this book BUT from the A100 A100, I realized it is a larger golden book. What you have is a first (A) edition of the big golden book with some of the older spine like little golden books had. There were a few special ones( like yours) but I do not know why??? I own own also. It sold for 1.00(100).
