Good find and like you said cool cover, it'll be interesting to see how much it goes for.

.. anyone know which came first?

I believe it was the egg 

Seriously though, as a general rule of thumb, hardbacks are released before softcovers.  The softcover has a recommendation emblazoned on the front cover which leads me to believe it had been released in some other form before it.
