H.G. Wells – The First Men In The Moon – First UK Edition 1901
£375.00
First edition, first printing. Published by George Newnes Ltd., in London, 1901. This is a very good copy. Without the dust wrapper. The blue cloth-bound boards are generally free from notable chips and marks aside from slight scuffing at the corners. There are slight marks to the front panel. The internals are bright and clean throughout but with some very slight foxing. The twelve plates are present and bright. The text blocks are also generally bright and clean. This copy is free from previous owners ink and is, overall, in very good condition.
Originally serialised in The Strand Magazine from December 1900 to August 1901 and published in hardcover in 1901, who called it one of his “fantastic stories”.
