Subterranean Press: USA, 2009. First edition (& 1st printing). Oversize hardcover. Co-published by Subterranean Press and PS Publishing. 746 pages: with more than fifty stories and two full-length screemplays by Bradbury (one from 1963, the other from 1997), introductions and afterwords by John Scalzi, Joe Hill, Marc Scott Zicree and Richard Matheson, cover art and interior colour plates by Edward Miller (aka Les Edwards). LIMITED EDITION: 1000 numbered copies signed by the author in red ink and slipcased. This is no 373. Note: the signed limitation pages show the Hill House logo at the bottom - Hill House had originally intended to put out this volume but went out of business before it could be completed: Subterranean/PS took the signed pages and completed the project. Also note that although the limitation states 1000 copies, only 500 were actually used for this slipcased edition: the remainder (or some of the remainder?) were used for a ''Second Printing'' (as stated on limitation page) and bound differently. Fine copy (as issued without dustjacket) in black cloth slipcase.
