Sobre este item
London: John Murray, 1909. First edition. Cloth. Good. 7.5" by 5.5". None. A first edition of this scarce novel by George Oliver Onions. A first edition of this scarce science fiction novel by George Oliver Onions. Although Onions stuck to novels and short stories, he wrote in various genres including adventures, detective fiction, and science fiction. However, Onions is best known for his ghost stories, and his novella The Beckoning Fair One is often cited as one of the best in the psychological horror genre. With an empty blue bookplate to the front pastedown. In the publisher's original green cloth binding. Externally, generally smart. Lightly rubbed to the boards and the spine, a little more so to the joints. Bumped to the head and tail of the spine, with a couple of closed tears at the head. A little bumped to the extremities. The rear hinge is starting, and rather tender. Internally, generally firmly bound, although the gutter is visible between pages 144 and 145, and the leaf of adverts to the rear is disbound. Aside from some light foxing to the front and rear of the volume, pages are bright and clean with the occasional mark. Good
