Description:
London: Methuen. London, Methuen, 1935. First Edition. First Impression. Hardback. A very good copy. The first issue of the jacket and book. Currey has no proirity between the first two issues with ads dated 535 and 835 (May, 1935 and August, 1935). It would seem logical that the first batch of books to have ads inserted would be those dated 535 and the later batch being 835, there is however nothing to assert that given the publication date of October. Personally, I would suggest that the 535 state would the preferred one. The main text block is otherwise indistinguishable. The jacket is complete with moderate edgewear, head of spine crushed with some tears and creasing. Forecorners and lower tip similar, but to a lesser extent. Prelims foxed a little. A slight lean and some bumping to the spine tips. All in all a respectable copy that's rarely found in fine condition. Cover art by Eric Fraser [8864, Hyraxia Books]. . Very Good. Hardback. 1st Edition. 1935.

London: Methuen. London, Methuen, 1935. First Edition. First Impression. Paperback. A very good copy. Currey's issue (F). A highlight of the Superman subgenre (or Ubermensch if you want to get all Nietzschean). Taking its lead from Beresford's Hampdenshire Wonder [Crossley, p225]. The sixth issue printed from remainder sheets bound in wraps with jacket plate pasted to upper wrap. The second of two issues in wraps. Some staining to lower edge, creasing to the spine, a little dusty. A presentable copy, better than usually found. [Aldiss & Lovegrove, p212] Cover art by Eric Fraser [7823, Hyraxia Books]. .

New York: Harper & Brothers. New York, Harper & Brothers, 1902. First Edition. First Impression. Hardback. A near fine copy. Inscribed by the author to Sir John Martin Harvey, theatre manager and actor and bearing his plate to the pastedown. A Bangsian fantasy it seems, which would be apt. This one revolving around Greek mythology. For those who aren't aware, Bangsian fantasy mostly takes place in the afterlife, often with famous characters taking a role. Farmer's Riverworld is a classic example. The book is a little toned on the spine, with some bumping to the tips. Some markings to the upper board too. [10128, Hyraxia Books]. . Near Fine.

Description:
London: Grafton. London, Grafton, 1988. First Edition. First Impression. Hardback. A lovely copy. Inscribed by the author thus: "For David \ This novelisation's \ of a Disneyland ride! \ Cheers, \ Tim Powers", upside down as is the author's style. Powers has mentioned a number of times how the Disneyland ride, which spawned the films, was a great influence on the book. Powers wrote the book after Lester Del Rey had rejected 'Anubis Gates' and 'Dinner at Deviant's Palace', but found Del Rey rejecting 'On Stranger Tides' too. Ace then picked the book up, as the feedback Del Rey had given Powers was strong enough to allow Powers to further sculpt the book. The present copy, being the first English edition, came out the following year. Nominated for the World Fantasy Award, and the inspiration for the Monkey Island video game from 1990, and most famously the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean film. An important novel in the perhaps under-represented subgenre of…

Description:
Framingham, MA: NESFA Press. Framingham, MA, NESFA Press, 2004. First Edition. First Impression. Hardback. Nope, not signed by Terry Pratchett, but by Omar Rayyan who provides the cover illustration. Rayyan's style is reminiscent of Rackham's with a slightly more humorous twist, perfectly suited to Pratchett. Perhaps best known for his more recent work with the Folio Society, particularly the Lang Fairy Book and Pratchett's Mort. Uncommon signed by Rayyan, and one for the collectors. A fine copy of the first impression. Introduction by Esther Friesner, and a further introduction (apology) by Pratchett. An important work really for Pratchett, gathering together so many minor pieces in one place, including essays, short stories, articles and fan pieces. Cover art by Omar Rayyan [6418, Hyraxia Books]. . Fine. Hardback. 1st Edition. 2004.
