Terry Pratchett The Colour of Magic First UK Edition 1983 SIGNED and INSCRIBED - Colin Smythe. A first edition, first printing published by Colin Smythe in 1983. A near fine book without inscriptions. SIGNED and inscribed To Emma/Without whom this book/would not have been/possible... In a fine unclipped wrapper WITHOUT the overprint on the front flap.
The first printing is said to have comprised 500 copies, but 400 of these were seemingly issued to libraries making fine copies difficult to come by. Emma was the head typesetter at Colin Smythe and so Pratchetts inscription appears to be a little ironic. JOHN ATKINSON BOOKS is a full-time professional bookseller in Ripon, North Yorkshire.
