    First Edition. Signed by actress Anne Francis who starred in the landmark science fiction film. She has rather charmingly signed her name in blue ink above the printed title beneath which she has also signed the book as her character in the film, ÒAltaira MorbiusÓ. This novel was issued to coincide with the release of the film classic starring Walter Pidgeon, Anne Francis, Leslie Nielsen, and Jack Kelly. Hardbound. About fine copy with a few tiny faint marks to the top of the front paper-covered board in a near fine bright dust jacket with a trace of edge wear.
