IAN FLEMING - THUNDERBALL, published by First Edition Library (and often referred to as the "FEL" edition), copyright 1961, copyright renewed 1989, white endpapers, black boards with gilt lettering on spine and impressed skeleton hand to front board, illustrated DJ and slipcase. Book and Dust Jacket is an exact reproduction of the UK Jonathan Cape Original Hardcover. First Edition Library (an imprint of Easton Press) issued these reproductions starting around 1993 and ending around 2002, and are now out of print and high collected by Ian Fleming collectors (often just for the slipcase). Book, Dust Jacket, and Slipcase are in very nice condition - book is unread and uncracked, no markings inside, no soiling/staining to dust jacket, no wear to DJ spine tips/flap crease tips, no sun fading to DJ spine (common defect with these FEL books), no dented corners or soiling to slipcase, no corner wear to slipcase, no tape tears to slipcase (another common defect), no dust soiling to slipcase. Overall a very nice difficult to find Ian Fleming James Bond FEL hardcover book complete with their original slipcase. I have a number of other U.S. and U.K. Ian Fleming James Bond 1st printing hardcover appearances up for auction on ebay - just click on the 'see other items' link to the right of the picture.
