Arthur C. Clarke - Sands of Mars - Gnome Press, 1952, First Edition.

New York, Gnome Press, 1952. First Edition. First Impression. Hardback. A near fine copy. The first US edition (the UK Sidgwick edition precedes by a few months). A lovely copy. A few minor tears and nibbles to the top of the spine, and a few trivial areas of wear to the edges. A little toning to jacket rear. All in all an excellent copy. Cover art by Ric Binkley [8307, Hyraxia Books].
