Hardcover. Folio (16 3/4 x 12 inches). Approx. 90 pages. Silver gilt stamped faux cloth boards. A second volume of Giger's nightmare vision, printed throughout on black coated paper, profusely illustrated, and with interviews, essays, and autobiographical fragments. VG + condition. The dustjacket is near-VG - it is a little rubbed at the edges and there is some "crazing" - apparently due to a reaction between the printed surface and the (original publisher's) laminate overlay.

Hardcover. Folio (16 3/4 x 12 inches). Approx. 90 pages. Silver gilt stamped faux cloth boards. Stated First U.S. Edition (October 1991). Inscribed by the author on the front pastedown, with the date 21/12/91. Please note this manuscript inscript is in addition to the facsimile signature and doodles that are printed on the front endpapers, and sometimes decieve the unwary. Not the Necronomicon of Lovecraftian fame, but a selection of art, interviews and photographs of the dark vision of artist H. R. Giger, whose designs were made famous in the film Alien. Copies of the US First Edition are comparatively hard to find, those inscribed in the year of publication particularly so. Boards somewhat rubbed at the edges, and with a few light scratches, otherwise VG + condition. The dustjacket is near-VG - it has general shelf-wear and some chips and tears around the edges, and one longish closed tear in the front panel (not touching the design).

Hardcover, Quarto 80pp. Color and black and white illustrations. Limited to 1000 copies. A book of occult-inspired artist Rosaleen Norton's drawings, with poems by Norton and her lover Gavin Greenlees. The original 1952 edition was banned in the USA on the grounds of obscenity, and had a restricted circulation in Australia, with a court ruling that some of the plates had to be 'blacked out' before copies could legally be sold. This edition reproduces all the material in the original, along with new introductions and additional colour plates. Includes the original publisher's prospectus for the book (a single sheet printed on both sides). Fine in fine dust jacket.
