Description

Wonderful first printing in its bold, original dust jacket

Rare unsigned book: Moonraker. First edition, first printing (with “shoot” on page 10, and a 19 mm text block). London: Jonathan Cape, 1955. Hardcover with dust jacket (priced at 10s 6d), 5.25 x 7.5, 256 pages. Book condition: VG+/VG+. Typically sunned to the point that the flames are indistinguishable, this dust jacket is extremely difficult to find with this level of definition. A fantastic first of this sought-after early title.
