A fellow Bond fan, Stuart Watson, supplied
the following information which helps to shed some more light on the very
rare OHMSS first edition. It seems that there was huge demand for this
book when it came out and as a consequence there were numerous print runs of
the hardback as they clearly sold for more. The majority of the first Pan
prints therefore went to Australia/Canada and will typically have 60c on the
cover. The 2nd edition is also rare. It was the 3rd before the UK priced
version appeared. |
