About This Item
First edition, first impression of the Omnibus edition containing the author's first three novels written under his 'John Wyndham' pseudonym.
Original green cloth with lettering to spine in gilt. Some spotting to edges and to front and rear endpapers and paste-downs with '1.00' written on front endpaper in biro.
The original and unclipped dust jacket is very good with light wear and marginal spotting to edges. A very good copy.
