First edition of the novelization of the classic 1936 film H. G. Wells' Things to Come. Octavo, original publisher's cloth. Signed by H.G. Wells and actor Derrick de Marnay on front free endpaper.

The book was adapted into the 1936 film, Things to Come, directed by William Cameron Menzies and starring Derrick de Marnay as Richard Gordon.
