About This Item

Three Hearts and Three Lions by Poul Anderson Hardcover First Edition - First Printing Doubleday 1961. States "First Edition" on copyright page and $2.95 cover price on front dust jacket flap. Dust Jacket art by Edward Gorey. (NOTE: this is NOT a book club copy)

Fine in Fine- Dust Jacket, NOT price-clipped. Just about as nice a copy as you'll find of Anderson's best fantasy novel. Book itself is near perfect with straight corners, clean boards and clean pages, just a couple of tiny pin-sized dirt marks on the back boards, almost imperceptible. Dust Jacket has NO tears, just very slight edge-wear and some slight soiling to the back which is very common with Doubleday editions from circa 1960 to 1980. Overall a beautiful copy of an uncommon book, especially in this condition. LW. Currey has about four copies currently, none appear to be as good as this one based on his descriptions. NOTE: This is NOT a BCE edition.

NOTE: The picture is the actual item for sale. (The picture is NOT a stock photo.)

ALSO: All books with dust jackets come with dust jacket covers.

NOTE on FEEDBACK: If you have problem with an order for any reason, please contact me before leaving feedback! 99% of the time we can resolve the problem. It is much more difficult to change feedback once left.

A Word on First Editions: 95% of my offerings are trade editions, and 90% of those are first printings. In general I do NOT sell book club editions or cheap reprints like Modern Library except in rare instances which would be explicitly stated as such. In general, I also DO NOT sell x-library copies.

I really enjoyed this book when my brother loaned me his copy 61 years ago. Now, I have a desire to read it again. My brother has died, so I need to buy my own copy.
