THE IRON MAN

First edition with these illustrations. Hardcover issue. Publisher's original black cloth stamped in blind to the upper board and titles in white to the spine, in dustwrapper. Illustrated throughout by Andrew Davidson. An excellent near fine copy, the binding square and firm with a little bumping at the spine tips, the cloth bright and fresh. Complete with the lightly rubbed and creased dustwrapper that is otherwise without fading, loss or tears. Not price-clipped (£7.95 net to the front flap). Issued simultaneously in hardcover and paperback, the hardcover is quite scarce.

A newly illustrated edition of the poet's science fiction novella, for which Hughes and Davidson won the Kurt Maschler Award (presented annually between 1982 and 1999, the award recognised one British "work of imagination for children, in which text and illustration are integrated so that each enhances and balances the other").
