Description: Stated First Edition/First Printing; A Near Fine book in a Very Good dust jacket. SIGNED and inscribed by the author to the title page. An exceptionally well preserved copy of this novel, the first chronologically in Asimov's Galactic Empire, taking place before "Pebble in the Sky", but written about one year later; this title uncommon in collectible condition, scarce indeed signed by Asimov. This copy is in near fine condition with a square, tight binding, silver lettering over clean dark blue boards, and crisp, bright pages throughout; the book does show some mild rubbing to the spine ends and board edges, else fine. Housed in a clean and bright very good dust jacket that shows only light rubbing and creasing to the jacket edges and some faint soiling to the back panel, else near fine or better. A highly presentable copy of this important early work of Science Fiction. Not remaindered, not price-clipped, not ex-library; in a protective Mylar cover and will ship securely wrapped in a sturdy box.
