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, otherwise very good. A very good copy indeed.

Light spotting to edges with a few spots to front and rear endpapers and paste-downs, else near fine in a near fine and unclipped dust jacket with some very moderate fading to spine panel and marginal toning to verso with a hint of rubbing to spine head, else near fine.
The Farthest Shore:

A very attractive and uniquely well-preserved set.
