Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Tom Hanks has a collection of typewriters. The man can also type. We all know he can act. He is gifted and can be funny and he can make you sad. He has actually held this first edition hardback book and SIGNED it on the title page, in a blue felt tip pen. It has a slightly and deliberately stressed looking rear of the jacket, which you can see in one of my photos. Some people think it is a fault. But it is not a fault. This jacket also has an official 'SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR' sticker on it. I must say that this collection makes you want to meet Tom Hanks. Shake him by the hand. The hand that actually held this book open when he signed it. We've all watched him on screen. And here in these wonderful stories we catch another side to his great talent. Signed by Author.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. First British and World First hardcover edition, and an extremely rare book indeed. This is the first collection of his "Known Space" stories. The title story won the 1967 Hugo Award. Unclipped protected jacket, and very rare thus. Most hardcover copies disappeared into libraries with the subsequent abuses of stamps and inserts. This one obviously never found itself anywhere near a library, and got itself into the hands of someone who cared because it is in better shape than any copy I have seen. Clean and tight text block, binding a little sunned at the top edge, but no bent corners to the binding. No inscriptions, no turned down corners. Jacket is brilliant too. A stunning collection of truly great SF stories. Niven's second book, and I believe this was its only hardcover issue.
