Boston, Fields, Osgood, & Co., 1869-1870. First edition, first impression. Paperback. Good copies. The first account of an orbiting space station, if inadvertently. A 200 foot ball made of brick is launched into orbit, with a bunch of people accidently aboard. Four volumes: October 1869-December 1869, and February 1870. Volume 24:144-146, and 25:148. The first three volumes contain the three parts of The Brick Moon, the additional volume contains the complete Life in the Brick Moon. Wrappers flaky, with some loss and chipping, crumbling to the touch. Some loss to the spines. As good as would be expected I guess. Pencil inscriptions. Intact overall. [11903, Hyraxia Books].
