About This Item
New York: Del Rey, 1977. First Book Club Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. John Berkey. 5 3/4 x 8 1/2 Inches. 183 Pages. Preceded only by the paperback original a few months earlier. SIGNED BY ALAN DEAN FOSTER AND BRIAN MUIR (THE ORIGINAL SCULPTOR OF DARTH VADER) DIRECTLY ON THE TITLE-PAGE. Muir has added "Vader Sculptor" to his signature. This Book Club Edition is the FIRST hardcover printing of the original classic. Contains the all-important letter code of "S27" in the gutter of page 183. The first trade edition of Star Wars was not printed until after the release of both the paperback and this book club version. Cover art by John Berkey, who later did the artwork for the Return of the Jedi - Death Star Battle video game from Atari. A watershed book in the Star Wars canon... The book is spectacular. The dust jacket shows a bit of wear at the crown and foot of spine as well as the folds.
