An attractive copy of the original 1983 hardcover edition of Wrightson's most famous work. It was published simultaneously in a softcover edition published by Marvel and this hardcover edition published by Dodd Mead.
Mary Shelley's classic horror novel with 42 full-page illustrations and 1 double-page illustration by Wrightson in the style of Franklin Booth.
Introduction by Stephen King.
The reproduction in this original edition is far superior to the 1994 Miller reprint on a glossy coated paper stock or the 2008 Dark Horse reprint where the reproduction is too dark to retain the fine details in the dark areas.
All editions are currently out of print.
