by Heinlein, Robert
*** ASSOCIATION COPY ***ROCKET SHIP GALILEO, Scribners (the surprisingly uncommon Junior Literary Guild issue), 1947, fine in near fine color pictorial dust-wrapper. The authors first trade publication. Formerly Fantasy Press publisher Lloyd Eshbach's copy with his ownership signature on the f.e.p. Nice association thus as Fantasy Press published 2 of Heinlein's books. Accompanied by a near 100 word typed postcard SIGNED by Heinlein, adding a 17 word holographic comment to the bottom, addressed to Gus Willmorth and dated 4/14/1950 asking if he (Gus) would be kind enough to forward an ad to Roy Squires, the new owner of the Fantasy Advertizer, offering a very generous trade for the Junior Literary Guild issue of ROCKET SHIP GALILEO (seemingly adding testimony to the uncommon nature of this edition.)
