First edition
Up for sale is a highly collectible copy of "At the Mountains of Murkiness and Other Parodies," published in London by Ferret Fantasy Ltd. in 1973. This scarce trade paperback compiles classic sci-fi and supernatural parodies, notably featuring H.P. Lovecraft parodies and a rare early humor piece by Arthur C. Clarke. The striking cover art is a wonderful Finlay parody illustrated by Jim Cawthorn, cheekily signed "Virgin Filigree."This copy is a verified first printing and crucially retains its loose yellow Errata slip at the back. It shows minimal handling wear to the paper covers and light natural toning to the pages. The interior flyleaf features a clean vintage ownership ink stamp from a collector in Brighton, Massachusetts. A fantastic addition for completionist collectors of Lovecraftiana, Arthur C. Clarke, and 1970s British small-press sci-fi ephemera.Sold as is. Please see pics for condition. Message w questions.
