Berlin, August Scherl, 1926. First edition, first impression. Hardback. A near fine copy. A lovely example. Thea von Harbou and her husband, Fritz Lang, worked on the film concurrently. The plot of the film and book were produced together. It was a massive undertaking, and hugely popular. It remains one of the era's most important films, and the present title is one of the most collectable books in science fiction film. The jacket has a 3mm hole in the spine, but is otherwise a lovely example with just a little handling wear and tanning to the spine. A little lightening to the cloth at the spine, so perhaps the jacket has been supplied at some point. one of the best copies we've seen. Presented in a pretty nifty box. Cover art by Willy Reimann [10000, Hyraxia Books].
