Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First American Edition. Augsburg, Bavaria, Germany: Weltbild Verlag GmbH, 1991. First American Edition . Near Fine/Good. Orig. published in English in 1985 as "Encyclopedia of Things that Never Were,'' this is the First German Edition from 1991. In GERMAN, which I cannot read, so much of this description is taken from our English-language edition. Lavishly illustrated, oversized hardcover book brings life to all sorts of imaginary beings & worlds from myths, legends, fairy tales, fantasies, & fables. In 240 pages with Bibliography & Index, with 300 full-color illustrations on every page, plus some full-sized ones throughout text. Arranged alphabetically, this comprehensive volume offers 400 entries sectioned into wondrous things of the Cosmos, the Ground & Underground, of Wonderland, of Magic, Science, & Invention, or Water, Sky, & Air, & of the Night. Oversized hardcover folio 10" x 13") has green cloth-covered boards with silver lettering to spine. Condition is Near Fine: exceptionally very clean & tight & square, pages bright white, colors vibrant.Very mild rubbing/fading to upper & lower extremities. The unclipped DJ is downgraded to only Good due to wear along these same edges, with many small chips & a few short (1" -2); nicely protected in free mylar cover.
