Phoenix 451: Limited Signed Numbered Edition

Colorado Springs, CO: Gauntlet Press, 2022. Limited Edition First Printing. Hardcover. New/New. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Bradbury, Ray. With each of their many Ray Bradbury titles, Gauntlet Press had extra tipsheets signed by Bradbury, and those that were unused were stored. Gauntlet are now using these 'classic' tipsheets on other Bradbury books. This copy of 'Phoenix 451' has a tipsheet for 'Something Wicked This Way Comes' that has been signed by Ray Bradbury, Joe Lansdale and Peter Crowther. Originally limited to only 150 numbered copies, Gauntlet Press increased this number to 170 when a few more signed tipsheets were found. Here we have #167. In 'Phoenix 451' you will find three variations of Bradbury's script adapting his novel, 'Fahrenheit 451'. One is a musical, another for the stage, and one a screenplay. You'll also have a chance to peruse Bradbury's typed second draft of the novel, which differs from the version that was ultimately published. Edited by Elizabeth Nahum-Albright, there is so much more you'll find in 'Phoenix 541', including reminiscences by Bradbury's bibliographer Donn Albright, complete with many of Bradbury's famous 'doodles', as well as photos from the personal collection of Nahum-Albright of Bradbury's home and office. The glossy dust jacket features two Bradbury paintings. Altogether a must-have for discerning fans of Ray Bradbury. This copy is in mint condition, as received directly from Gauntlet Press. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Heavy/oversize book. U.K. postage at default rate but international buyers will be asked for a little extra. All orders professionally packed, tracked and/or signed for, and insured.
