Dune by Frank Herbert   Ace N-3  True 1st print 1967      $100

Movies have exploded this book in recent years. Many bad printing identifications out there. Only N-3 on the cover is a 1st print.

John Schoenherr cover art. Hugo and Nebula winner.

Soooo tough to find these in any kind of decent shape at 544 pages thick.

This one is tight and glossy without major creases, one small color chip to lower corner. Spine has slight curl. Pages lightly toned and super supple.

 

Very, very, very tough book in decent shape.  N-3 is the one to have, accept no substitutes.

"Flesh" should make a nice segue into some straight n sleazy GGA books tomorrow since it's a little of both Sci Fi and sleaze. I'll have tons more Science Fiction as well but think I'll be starting off with Girls tomorrow. Appreciate the takes and likes as always

Flesh by Philip Jose Farmer  Beacon No 277    1960  True first of this scarce sleaze/sci fi novel that was controversial in its time. Bargain copy    $20

Classic Gerald McConnel GGA cover art.

Tight mid grade copy that has spine and edgewear, toning but the twisted image is intact and awesome.

I’m happy with my Chilton BCE.  But I’ll agree that’s the PB you want
