Comments & Further Information

A first US edition hardback with a 1 to 9 number sequence indicating a first printing.  Foxing to page edges.  The dust jacket is complete and still shows the price, but is showing signs of wear to the extremities.  It is a little grubby and there is some minor foxing to the top edge.  The jacket is rubbed/dirty down the spine adjacent to the front cover and is generally more yellow than white.

This is Volume I (of a 10 volume series) of  The Complete Stories of Theodore Sturgeon.  Includes  Forewords by Ray Bradbury, Arthur C Clarke and Gene Wolfe.

SYNOPSIS:  “Volume I covers stories sent out to New York publishers between 1937 and 1940.  Here is the earliest Sturgeon – callow yet insightful about people, able to write equally well in the voice of a woman or a man, with the certain bravado of youth shining through many of his leading characters.”
