THE HITCH HIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY

First American edition, first printing. Publisher's original blue boards and purple cloth spine with titles in metallic blue to the spine, in the Peter Cross illustrated dustwrapper. A better than very good copy, the binding firm with light bumping at the corners, the boards bright and fresh. The contents are clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. The top edge of the closed block edge is a little spotted. Complete with the lightly rubbed dustwrapper that has a crease to the upper corner of the front flap and is otherwise bright and without fading, loss or tears. Not price-clipped ($6.95 to the upper front flap).

The first novel in the comedy science fiction franchise that spawned an international multimedia phenomenon. First published as a paperback original by Pan Books in 1979.
