Near Fine. 5 7/8 X 9 1/8 Inches. 339 2 PP. #18 of only 25 signed limited editions prepared and sold by the author himself. Important to note only 22 were available for sale. Without a doubt one of the finest examples of fine leather binding I have ever encountered on a newly issued book. Each of the 25 copies from this limited first printing run are bound in vegatan oiled leather. Due to the nature of the natural tanning process each volume is unique with its own distinctive patterning. What may be perceived as nicks or scratches are really a consequence of the tanning method. The cover is embossed with a stunning relief image of Mad Amos. Housed in original red cloth slipcase. 5 7/8 X 9 1/8 Inches. 339 2 PP.<br /> <br /> A nice collection of 18 Mad Amos Malone stories which blend fantasy with the western in ways that interest Foster's Fantasy fans as well as lovers of tales of the Old West. I don't think Eastwood could have handled Worthless Malone's unicorn companion. A rare book in AS NEW condition. . Wordfire Press unknown
