Up for sale is an exceptionally rare, collector-grade copy of the 1979 First Jove Edition of James Bond and Moonraker, written by screenwriter Christopher Wood. This is the official movie tie-in novelization for the classic Roger Moore 007 film.
Condition Profile: Collector's Grade (Unread / Fine)
This paperback has been exceptionally well-preserved for nearly 50 years and appears entirely unread.
Spine: Strict, tight, and completely uncreased. No vertical reading cracks or structural bowing.
Page Edges: The original, vibrant publisher's yellow edge stain is incredibly bright and uniform with virtually no shelf-rubbing.Cover: The iconic Roger Moore front cover art remains crisp and highly reflective. There is only microscopic, negligible shelf wear to the extreme edges and corners from storage, far superior to typical copies found today.
Interior: Pages are clean, crisp, and firmly bound. No writing, stamps, highlights, or dog-ears.
Collector Note: 1970s Jove paperbacks were printed on fragile, high-acid paper stock and were notoriously prone to instant spine cracking upon opening. Finding a completely unread copy with the yellow edge dye fully intact is an absolute rarity for James Bond completionists.
This book is from my personal collection and is the exact one you will receive.
