Tales from Outer Suburbia *Signed 1st Australian (true first)* by TAN, Shaun - 2008-05-01

Crows Nest, Australia: Allen & Unwin, 2008-05-01. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/No dustwrapper as issued. TAN. Shaun. Signed. Signed first Australian edition/first printing and true first edition of author's first collection of stories, fables and new (sub)urban myths told in both words and his uniquely fabulous illustrations. Tan's work is hard to describe in any condensed form - which will, in any case, fall far short of the actual reading experience. This copy is signed with gold ink and a red fingerprint flower. If it's too pricey, just do yourself a favor and buy a regular copy from anywhere you want and sit down and read it. Then go find his other books and do the same. Very special. We have listed several limited edition prints of illustrations from from this title on ABE. All of our first editions are first printings unless otherwise noted. Dustwrappers are protected with clear archival wraps and we pack each book like it's a Tiffany egg.
