The Panic Hand (Presentation Copy)

London: Harper Collins, 1995. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 8vo., 240pp. Beautiful First Edition, First Printing with full number sequence of this anthology of fantasy stories. Square, tight, and clean throughout with little or no wear. Fairly mild page edge toning as is common due to paper quality. Equally attractive unclipped dust-jacket, (£14.99), is fresh and bright with no chipping, creases, tears or toning. Inscribed, signed and dated by the author on the title page. "These stories are for Malcolm who was kind enough to give them an English home. Thank you. Jonathan Carroll, 02/95". "Malcolm" is unknown but given the inscription, it is perhaps an English literary agent or publisher executive. A gorgeous collectable copy at a great price.
