McCaffrey, Anne
The People of Pern
151 pages. Artist Robin Wood met Anne McCaffrey at the first totally Pern-oriented convention in the U.S. in 1984. However, prior to that, Robin had designed and executed portraits of Pern characters for the Mayfair Games board game, Dragonriders of Pern. In the ensuing conversation about what the characters from the Pern books really looked like, this book was conceived. Four years of work followed, with Robin and Anne comparing notes at conventions, discussing details of Pern and its people, passing letters and sketches across the Atlantic and arriving at mutually satisfactory conclusions. This represents the first, authentic look at the people of Pern, a collaboration of the finest kind between two of the finest artists available today. Very attractively illustrated glossy dust jacket in wonderful condition with minimal signs of rubbing at top and bottom edges and 3/4" tear to top of back panel. Book could pass as new. A superior copy of this enchanting work. Book

Meiser, George M, IX, and Gloria Jean Meiser
The Passing Scene: Photographs of Old-Time Reading and Berks County Penn'a - Volumes 6 7 8 10 4 Volumes - Editor Chet Hagan's working copies
Reading PA: Historical Society of Berks County Printed by Reading Eagle Press 1989. Book. Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Grouping of four 4 volumes of the Meisers' Passing Scene series consisting of Volumes 6 7 8 and 10 issued in respectively dark green lavender rust and light blue cloth lettered in gold foil. All volumes are complete but were "Historical Review" editor Chet Hagan's working copies from which he removed several leaves for copying and reinserted them by taping them back in along the binding edge resulting in some fore-edges projecting beyond the text block also a few minor inked notations. In most of the volumes only several leaves are affected; in Vol. 8 the worst offender about 6 leaves appear to have been removed and reinserted. Volumes otherwise show mild handling wear with a bit of foxing to endpapers of several some cover rubbing/spotting mild binding leans. 272 or so pp. per volume illus. All are decent enough reading/reference copies but certainly not collector-grade. Vol. 8 is inscribed by both authors and Vol. 10 by GMMIX both personalized to Hagan. Price is for all 4 volumes. Historical Society of Berks County [Printed by Reading Eagle Press] Hardcover
