O'BRIEN,  Tim.  IF  I DIE IN A COMBAT ZONE.  New  York:  Delacorte
(1973).  First  Edition. His scarce first book, SIGNED by  O'Brien  on
the  title page. Typical but in this case barely noticeable sunning to
the  very edges of the boards; unknown name, address, and date on  the
front  pastedown  completely  covered  by   the  inside  flap  of  the
dustwrapper.  The date "March 1973" would make this a very early  copy
of  the  first  edition  as the publication date for  this  title  was
announced  as  7 May 1973. The dustwrapper is complete but for a  very
tiny  chip  at  the top front corner. The only other  defects  to  the
dustwrapper  are  mild  wear to the head of the spine and  a  vertical
crease  down  the  inside  front  flap.  Near  Fine  in  a  Near  Fine
dustwrapper. Very attractive copy.                            $3500.00
