New York; (1980): Crown Books. First Edition. Octavo. The author's first book was signed and inscribed by her. 468 pages. One of the great first novels by an author who researched the life of people in the eras before recorded history as well as the life of the Eskimos. She lived in an ice cave and experienced the kind of food that would have been available. The lovely woman who came upon the people did not see her as beautiful by our standards but as ugly and unappealing. One of the great novels that did not pander to the conventional views of ancient peoples that emphasized violence as opposed to those who knew the need for cooperative societies. A lovely near fine copy bound in 1/4 yellow cloth over green paper covered boards, spine lettering green, in a near fine unclipped pictorial dust jacket with a very minute tear to foot.

Colorado Springs, CO: Gauntlet Press, 2022. Limited Edition First Printing. Hardcover. New/New. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Bradbury, Ray. With each of their many Ray Bradbury titles, Gauntlet Press had extra tipsheets signed by Bradbury, and those that were unused were stored. Gauntlet are now using these 'classic' tipsheets on other Bradbury books. This copy of 'Phoenix 451' has a tipsheet for 'Something Wicked This Way Comes' that has been signed by Ray Bradbury, Joe Lansdale and Peter Crowther. Originally limited to only 150 numbered copies, Gauntlet Press increased this number to 170 when a few more signed tipsheets were found. Here we have #167. In 'Phoenix 451' you will find three variations of Bradbury's script adapting his novel, 'Fahrenheit 451'. One is a musical, another for the stage, and one a screenplay. You'll also have a chance to peruse Bradbury's typed second draft of the novel, which differs from the version…
