Ian Fleming – From Russia With Love – First UK Edition 1957
£2,450.00
First edition, first printing. Published by Jonathan Cape, London, in 1957. This is a very good copy. The dust wrapper is finely illustrated by Richard Chopping. Not price clipped. Small losses to the corners of the wrapper and to the spine tips. Rubbing to the edges and some marks to the front and rear panels. The boards are in very good condition, with no notable chips and marks to note, aside from a very slight lean. The red embossed title on the spine is faded, and the gun and rose motif is bright and glistening. The book has a small name and date to the head of the endpaper. The text blocks are generally clean, but have some rare instances of marking present. Overall, this is one the original 15,000 printed in 1957 and is in very good condition. The fifth title in the James Bond series.
