Ian Fleming

You Only Live Twice. London: Jonathan Cape, 1964

8vo, uncorrected proof copy, variant proof wrapper, light green card covers, proof-only dust-jacket, collector's half morocco clamshell case, spine ends of dust-jacket with a few minor creases and closed tears

One of 'a few copies' in the variant proof wrapper (Gilbert, p. 388), featuring the usual misprints and textual differences to the published version, but with the 'proof only' notice and details hand-stamped in purple ink.

One of the most acclaimed novels of the series.
