About This Item
London: Folio Society, 2022. First Edition, Fourth Impression 4th Printing. Fine Binding. New. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Vector That Fox. A new copy in Folio Society wrapping, as received directly from the publisher. First Folio edition, fourth impression. An instant bestseller on publication in 1990, Michael Crichton's novel about geneticists bringing dinosaurs back from extinction was, and remains, irresistible. The film rights were snapped up before the ink on the manuscript had dried, and the Steven Spielberg-directed movie broke box office records. This Folio Society illustrated edition of Crichton's electrifying novel enhances the action-packed narrative with illustrations by artist Vector That Fox, and features retro recreations of period computer graphics. A scaly 'dinosaur skin' slipcase ensures that young adult and older readers alike are fully immersed in this hair-raising adventure. Bound in paper with soft-touch lamination and textured spot varnish, printed with a wraparound design by Vector That Fox. Set in Dante with Manito as display. 448 pages. 6 full-page colour illustrations, 1 black & white illustrated title double-page spread. 27 integrated black & white graphics. Textured paper slipcase. 9½'' x 6¼''. In mint condition as received directly from The Folio Society. Additional photos available on request or these may be viewed on my listing. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Heavy/oversize. U.K. postage at default rate but overseas buyers may be asked for a little extra. Enquiries welcome. All orders professionally packed, tracked and/or signed for, and fully insured.
