  TRAVELS

 

 Michael Crichton

Illustrated by Robert Wisneiwski

 

Beautiful Topgrain Leather Limited Signed First Edition

 

One of the "Signed First Edition Society" Collection, privately printed by the Franklin Library, and personally signed by late author Michael Crichton     

      

This beautiful book features:

 

  • Full Tooled Leather Green Binding
  • Hubbed Tooled Leather Spine
  • Lovely Pale Yellow satin bookmark, sewn in
  • Elaborate 22-karat gold lettering and ornamentation on the spine, front and back boards
  • Gilding on all page edges, to protect against dust and moisture
  • Decorative Marbled endpapers
  • Beautifully reproduced frontispiece illustration, specially commissioned for this edition
  • With a special introduction by the author, written for this edition and not found in any other
  • Acid neutral archival paper, designed to last generations without discoloring or degrading
  • Acid-free leaves Smyth-sewn for longevity, durability and readability
  • NEAR FINE+ Exterior condition
  • FINE Interior condition
  • 377 Pages

  

There are no bookplates, names, marks or writing of any kind in the book apart from the author's signature.  The corners and edges are sharp, and the gilt is bright and clean with minor imperfections.  The bindings are square and tight (though not quite as tight as those of a brand new book), with clean covers and crisp white pages. 

 

THIS IS A WONDERFUL SIGNED FIRST EDITION BY MICHAEL CRICHTON, AUTHOR OF JURASSIC PARK AND THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN

 

Every book you buy from us will be wrapped and packed securely in a sturdy new box for shipment to you.  WE NEVER SHIP IN PADDED ENVELOPES, because books are frequently damaged this way, particularly their delicate corners.  USPS Delivery confirmation will be purchased for every domestic shipment.

 

We offer a significant discount on shipping prices for multiple purchases shipped together.  We are happy to wait up to 7 days for payment to combine shipping for additional purchases.  For domestic orders with Media Mail shipping, the shipping cost for your 2nd and any subsequent books is $2.50 – further discounts apply for larger quantities of books.  2 books (and sometimes 3, size allowing) can be sent for the price of 1 Priority shipment.  Discounts also apply to Express Mail shipments; please do not hesitate to ask us. 

 

The default shipping (for up to 4 pounds in weight) for international deliveries is USPS insured First Class Mail International; other services are available, and a multiple item shipping discount applies.
