About This Item
London: Robert Hale, 1954. First Edition. Hard Cover. Dust Jacket. First UK Edition. A bookseller's ticket on the front paste-down, a couple of minor bumps to the boards and some light foxing to the page edges overall a nice VG book. The very rare pictorial D/W is VG indeed and is not price-clipped and is pretty much complete. There is a touch of rubbing to the extremities and a short closed tear with associated creasing to to the back panel. The basis for the ground-breaking, famously over-heated Republic Pictures movie of the same name starring Joan Crawford as Vienna, Sterling Hayden as Johnny 'Guitar' Logan, Mercedes McCambridge as Emma Small, Scott Brady as Dancin' Kid, Ernest Borgnine as Bart Lonergan and directed by Nicholas Ray. This, the British first edition, is significantly rarer than its US counterpart and is seldom seen in D/W.
