About this Item

The very scarce limited edition of the 'first draft' of the 1930s short story 'Colossus' by American science fiction writer Donald Wandrei. One of two-hundred unnumbered copies of this first draft printed.In his introduction, George Locke explains that 'in the last decade of the twentieth century I acquired a substantial quantity of manuscripts and other archival material relating to' Wandrei, including the pencil manuscript for the first draft of the short story 'Colossus', which initially appeared in 'Astounding Stories' in the 1930s.This draft differs significantly from the work as it was eventually published, and so Locke printed two-hundred copies of this very scarce 'first draft'.A very scarce work. In the publisher's original paper wraps. Externally, fine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages clean and bright. Fine. Seller Inventory # 892F38
