Description: This is the 1954 *first UK edition* of AHEAD OF TIME by Henry Kuttner. Highly regarded collection of 10 stories written during the 1940s and 1950s — five reportedly created in seamless collaboration with his Sci Fi writer wife CL Moore … Hardback, around 4.5 inches by more than 7.25 tall, retains its publisher’s pictorial dust jacket, unclipped and intact as originally issued, over original black cloth covered boards, with titling to the back strip protecting the spine lettered in silver. First UK edition published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson, London, in 1954. Free from prior ownership inscriptions and permanent markings to the text. Although interior condition is overall good, because this original letterpress book is old, it does display minor signs of use and age — such as the usual discolouration to old paper — consistent with a printed object of this vintage. All 192 pp main text are complete and otherwise correct. ¶ Henry Kuttner (1915–1958); American science fiction, fantasy and horror author; C L Moore aka Catherine Lucille Moore (1911–1987); American Science Fiction writer, partner of foregoing. ¶ Your book, anywhere within the UK, is sent to you FREE.
