Lettered Issue, Signed by Bradbury and Steadman

Fahrenheit 451 [Signed, Lettered, with a Steadman Lithograph]

Bradbury, Ray; illustrated by Ralph Steadman

Notes: The deluxe limited issue of this 50th anniversary illustrated edition of Brabury's great dystopian novel. The book includes full-page color illustrations by the illustrator Ralph Steadman, who is widely known for his work with Hunter S. Thompson.

There were 451 copies of this edition, with a special introduction by Bradbury written just for this book. This is one of 52 lettered copies presented in a lovely folding clamshell box for the book and an original signed lithograph, "The Hound", by Ralph Steadman. This is a wonderful pairing of one of the great novels of the second half of the 20th century with one of the best illustrators of adult books of the same era.

Edition + Condition: A fine copy in a fine dust jacket and a near fine clamshell box. This copy is SS of 52, signed by Bradbury and Steadman, with a fine example of the Steadman lithograph in a fine envelope, as issued.
