[Rarebooks] FS: Ray Bradbury's MARTIAN CHRONICLES Limited Illustrated & SIGNED, just removed from publisher's box after nearly 40 years, at a very special price today only

[Charles Agvent]

We have 8 or 9 copies of this title that we are offering _*today only*_ 
at a very special price, significantly less than you will find anywhere 
else.  These books were never in circulation and were acquired directly 
from the publisher's warehouse where they were in a box for the last 
nearly 40 years.  They are Fine, as new, in the original glassines.  The 
slipcases are also present, but they were stored separately from the 
books and unfortunately suffered a little rodent damage, some chewing of 
the edges to varying degrees.  They are all, however, completely 
intact.  First to order will receive the slipcases with the least amount 
of damage.  Again, you must order today directly from us by contacting 
us by email or telephone (610-682-4750).   No further discounts allowed 
and postage is extra.   Payment by check only.
