YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE

First edition, first printing, second state. Publisher's original black cloth with silver titles to the spine and gilt to the upper board, in the Richard Chopping illustrated dustwrapper. A fine copy, the binding square and tight, the cloth birght and fresh. The contents are clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the fine original dustwrapper that is entirely without fading, loss or tears, the pink petals to the spine retaining strong colour. Not price-clipped (16s. net to the front flap). A spectacular, as new example.

The book is in the second state with 'First published March 1964' to the copyright page. "Both the first and second state were available from publication date and constitute the first impression" [Gilbert A12a (1.3)].
