Planet Plane
John Wyndham, Modern First Editions, Science Fiction
Planet Plane
By John Beynon (John Wyndham)
First edition, first impression in the rare green first issue cloth, rather than the later yellow binding. Later re-published under the title 'Stowaway to Mars'. The author's second science fiction novel and third published novel overall, preceding those he wrote as 'John Wyndham', such as 'The Day of the Triffids', 'The Chrysalids' and 'The Midwich Cuckoos' that so dramatically influenced the genre.
Original green cloth. Gift inscription to front paste-down. Some spotting, primarily to preliminaries, edges and final leaves with far lighter and more isolated spotting to contents, else very good. Lacking dust jacket. A rare edition of one of the author's earliest works, seldom found in its first issue green binding.

American Psycho
First Edition, Modern First Editions, Signed First Editions
American Psycho
By Bret Easton Ellis
First UK hardcover edition, first impression. Signed and inscribed by the author to the title page: 'For Danny best wishes Bret Easton Ellis'. A novel that was censored in several countries due to the graphic nature of the violence it depicts and formed the basis for the popular 2000 film adaptation.
Originally published as a paperback in the US and UK in 1991 and, as a hardcover, by way of the present edition in the UK in 1998. A hardcover edition would not be issued in the US until some 14 years later in 2012.
Original black cloth with silver lettering to spine and dark blue endpapers and paste-downs. A lovely and clean example with only a very minor knock to bottom corner of upper board and mild compression to spine foot.
The original and unclipped dust jacket bears the correct '10.00' price, corresponding to the first issue. Some of the usual sunning to spine panel with a little edgewear to spine ends and a very tiny nick to foot of lower panel spine hinge.
A near fine copy of a novel that is uncommon inscribed.

A Town Like Alice
By Nevil Shute
First edition, first impression. A romance novel set in Australia and, briefly, in Malaya; published in 1950 soon after the author had settled in Australia. Adapted into a film and popular TV series in 1956 and 1981 respectively.
Original red cloth with lettering to spine in gilt and book title and author's monogram to upper cover in blind and publisher's imprint in blind to lower cover. Red top-stain. Some toning to edges and marginal, moderate browning to half-title. 'June' written in biro to front endpaper. Upper board ever-so-slightly bowed. Else a very good copy or better with the red top-stain nicely preserved and the contents nice and clean.
The original and unclipped dust jacket has several chips to spine ends and to upper panel with a few closed tears to edges, most notably to the top of lower panel. Some spotting to verso and, more faintly, to flaps.
