About This Item
New York: Harcourt Brace, 1967. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Arthur Hawkins. Trade Edition and appears to be a 1967 reprint on indicia page (E . 12.67; also no gutter page number near back of book) and unclipped priced dj flap ($7.50), in Near Fine condition (two minor tape ghosts on FFE) with a sharp dust jacket (in a protector) approaching Near Fine condition (some minor wear along extremities) Omnibus of Childhood's End, Earthlight, and 18 Short Stories by Clarke. Introduction by Clifton Fadiman. This is a beautiful copy of this important omnibus, and though apparently not the 1959 first edition, it is hard to find ANY of these trade edition copies in superior condition. From the personal collection of SF author John Stith with his notation and signature on the FFE.
