Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
New York: Random House, 1971.
First edition, first printing. Signed by Hunter S. Thompson on the front free endpaper. Bound in publisher's black cloth spine over black paper covered boards decorated in blind, with titles in silver on the spine. Near Fine with the typical sunning to boards at top edge, light wear to corners and spine ends, spotting to textblock edge. In a Near Fine unclipped dust jacket, with light toning and light wear, creasing to front flap. A drugged-out mixture of travel writing, journalism and literature set to boil against the desert heat. A lovely copy of Thompson's vivid and wild journey, which seems inseparable from Steadman's iconic, perfectly paired illustrations; signed by Thompson. Item #140946792
