First Edition
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 gilt 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.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Super scarce. This is a rare hardback first edition made even scarcer by a complete unclipped jacket. I rate it Near Fine because I am taking the age into account. It might even be unread. The protected jacket is usually damaged or missing, and the book is rarely found without sun damage, or with turned over corners. No owner names, not ex-library. A real pulp collectable.
