About This Item
First Edition/First Printing with the correct statement on copyright page; A Very Good book in a Near Fine dust jacket. SIGNED by the author on the title page, with provenance laid in. A very good book which shows some mild shelf wear including some mild crimping on the bottom spine end, some minor staining to the exterior text block and to the front board, some light fading to the spine lettering, and just a very minor slant to the binding, otherwise a clean tight volume. The dust jacket is near fine with some light chipping on the bottom spine end and some overall toning; not price clipped, not ex-lib, no markings other than SK's signature on the title page. A handsome copy rare to find in collectible condition especially with SK's signature (and with the provenance to know it's authentic)....protected in a Mylar cover.
Synopsis
Firestarter is a story by Stephen King originally serialized in Omni magazine and later published in novel form in 1980. The Novel was nominated for a British Fantasy Award in 1981.
