19965326New York: Tor 1996. First Edition First Printing. Hardcover boards. Book in Fine condition/Complete dust jacket in Fine condition. Compiled by photographer Patti Perret in 1984 through BlueJay Press as a photo-essay collection of 100 modern fantasy authors with each author given a 2 page spread for a personally penned essay and a photo taken by Perret. <br /> <br /> First Edition First Printing with complete number line signed by 14 of the writers. In collectible condition with seemingly no signs of wear to either the complete dust jacket save for a touch of shelf wear to the head of the DJ or the book itself. Even the cream-colored hardcover boards appear new and without any smudging or discoloration; a feat for a book this many decades old and handled by so many hands for signatures. The only “flaws†would be the signature impressions that transferred through the pages from some of the heavier-handed signatories and most notably with Jack Williamson’s signature whose signature has stained the page opposite his portrait however the transfer does not impair the reading of his essay contribution. <br /> <br /> Signed by: Joyce Carol Oates p. 35 Charles de Lint p. 92 George R.

Tolkien’s “The Lord of the Ringsâ€.<br /> <br /> The book opens with an introduction written by writer Terri Windling of Bumblehill Press and Mythic Imagination Institute who explores the historical evolution of myth archetypes and fantasy story telling from “Gilgamesh†to modern times and what treasured fantasy stories transmit to society at large through the ages. <br /> <br /> This edition was released by BlueJay Books a small specialty publishing house the operated for a brief period in the mid 80s and competed against larger traditional distributors.
