Franklin Library would contract the first edition rights with both the author and the mass-market publisher. Thus Franklin Library first editions are more valuable than many other "first editions" that are not, in fact, the first edition of the book printed. The Franklin Library was one of the largest and most sought-after publishers of fine leather-bound books from 1973 until their permanent closure in 2000. Due to their extremely Limited Edition nature, they are highly sought after as collectibles. This is a book of the Franklin Library Signed First Editions Society from 1983 and includes an authentic individual signature by the author on a separate page of the book. These collector's books are genuine leather bound books with 22k. gold lettering and stampings on the spine and covers and an attached silk page marker.; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 170 pages; Signed by Author .
