first edition
1959 · London
by Fleming, Ian
London: Cape, 1959. First Edition. Bookplate, else fine in a near fine 1st issue dustjacket with a light and inconspicuous damp-stain to the spine. The jacket’s flap point is vital, but the binding flaw isn’t an issue point as both states of it were sold on publication day. Goldfinger 1st editions are omnipresent (24,250 printed), and zanily expensive, with 30 of them for sale, but this one is beautiful, and few are, and it’s priced right. Custom box. (Inventory #: 1099)
