VERNE, Jules. FROM THE EARTH TO THE MOON AND AROUND THE MOON. New York: 
Limited Editions Club, 1970. Two quarto volumes (7" x 10-3/4") bound in 
ochre buckram-backed boards stamped in green and gold leaf and covered 
with a segment of a map of the lunar surface. This is copy #159 of 1500 
with an introduction by the author's grandson and illustrated with color 
plates by Robert Shore. Of a total edition of 1500 copies SIGNED by the 
artist on the colophon page, this is one of only 25 Presentation Copies 
with the publisher's blindstamp attesting to such on the colophon page 
where instead of a number the initials "J.M." are handwritten. Acquired 
directly from the publisher's files, and most likely the publisher 
Jonathan Macy's very own copy. Fine in a typically and lightly rubbed, 
Near Fine slipcase. (#016323)        $150.00
