EARLY DEL REY. Garden City: Doubleday & Company, Inc., 1975. Large octavo, boards. First edition. A collection of twenty-four previously uncollected short stories with autobiographical notes and appendix. A useful collection of early stories by a major Golden Age writer "with connecting autobiographical narrative that throws light on much in SF of the period, especially in wartime ... Many of the stories contain unabashed sentimentalism, a not unattractive element in the period's SF." - Paul A. Carter. Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-306. A touch of spotting to top edge of text block, else a fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#175430).
Price: $100.00
