London: Sphere Books Ltd, 1975. First UK Softcover Editions. Softcover. Pocket sized paperbacks. Three volumes, complete. Vol. I: 312pp, Vol II: 250pp + vi adverts. and Vol. III: 253pp, iv. Illustrated covers. The first UK edition of the "Illuminatus!" trilogy which Wilson co-authored with Robert Shea and which quickly became a cult classic. It mixed occultism and conspiracy theories, with drug and counter-cultural thought in a blend that many found provocative and appealing. From the collection of Clive Harper with his discreet book-label neatly tipped in at the rear and his ink stamped name etc on inside front covers. Harper is well- known as the bibliographer of Austin Osman Spare, for updating the Aleister Crowley bibliography in the 2011 Teitan Press collection of Gerald Yorke's writings, and as someone who has lent his expertise to numerous other publications. A bit of light ordinary shelfwear, light creasing to spines and light bumps to corners, pages toned but unmarked -thus a tight, clean VG+ set. Item #66836
