Description: True first edition of Darker Than Amber by John D. MacDonald, Very Good (Fawcett Gold Medal #d1674, 1966).Paperback original. No creases or tears, .50 price in the medal on upper left of cover, yellow dye on text block still present, pages tight, binding crisp, cover illustration bright. Slight rub on upper page ends and tiny closed tear at head of spine (no creasing), otherwise appears unread, 190 pp. Now protected in plastic sleeve (see photos). A rare treat for collectors of MacDonald. The seventh book in the acclaimed Travis MacGee series with all of the proper points distinguishing it as a rare first edition. This includes the proper number code d1674; the lack of stated printings on the copyright page; no date code on the last page of text; and the right sequence of preceding publications on the biblio page. MacDonald's early works were printed as paperback originals by Fawcett Gold Medal in the 60s and have been reissued several times. Sellers often try to pass early editions as originals (don't be fooled by pretenders). This is the real deal.
