Red Planet
By Robert A. Heinlein
 
First UK edition, first impression. The first appearance of Heinlein's Martian elder race.
 
Original red cloth with lettering to spine in gilt. Some toning and spotting to edges with a touch of pushing to spine foot. The original and unclipped dust jacket - featuring cover art by Alan Breese - has a small chip to spine head, which has been inconspicuously repaired, a few small nicks to edges and a couple of areas of water marking to spine panel verso. A very good copy indeed.
