Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Undated but could be a first printing of the first hardcover edition. The jacket is worn and it has some abrasions and chippings and a couple of tears, but this is a near complete - and now protected - example. The red cloth has an elaborate embossed and attracti…ve design, and it has been protected all these years well enough to be clean and unfaded. The text block is foxed on the edges and less so inside. Collectable example of this clever writer's work. No former owner marks, not an ex library copy. Clean and tight binding. Language: eng.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. 1st Edition. RARE to find this book with a jacket. It is a damaged jacket, but it is just about there. The front panel has areas at the top edge that are missing, but nothing 'live' is lost. There are a few chips to the bottom edge as well. The front flap has the pric…e, and is complete, as is the rear flap. The rear panel is not as damaged as the front, and the spine has the title word 'Peter' missing and at the bottom there is another section lost. But the jacket is more than a mere ghost, and although it is tatty it has protected the pale blue cloth board binding, which means the gilt titling is still bright. The text block is firm and clean, no markings or underlinings. This is not an ex-library copy. It does have a former owner's blind stamp on the half title, but this is rather attractive.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. This was a ground breaking issue in 1967. First printing of a large format hardback in landscape format, beautifully produced by Nostalgia Press, with special care to reproduce the stunning line work of Alex Raymond. The cloth cover is beautifully gi…lt stamped with Alex Raymond's signature and the title. The endpapers are gorgeous. Taking the age into consideration this has few flaws; a former owner's signature, which is neat and dated '1967' is on the half title, and which dates this rather neatly; there are some slight foxing spots; the cover is complete but it has some fairly insignificant losses, chips and creases, but it is essentially complete and now protected. A super collectable of a true classic. Large format, very heavy, this might need extra postage charges depending on destination. Language: eng.
