The Princess of the Atom First edition 1950 Vintage fantasy paperback by Ray Cummings
$31.00
"The Princess of the Atom" by Ray Cummings, published by Avon in 1950.
First edition. This is a "very good -" vintage paperback with an intact spine, not cracked or creased, just a hint of a little roll in the upper portion. The text is relatively square and closes flat and tightly. No loose, torn or folded pages, no writing. The covers have some light creasing, more so on the back with most pronounced being on the back lower corner across the authors image (see accompanying images). Text block is tinted on all sides, mostly uniform, with exception being the lower corner where it might be from moisture exposure, nothing visible on the pages themselves. The back cover as some surface rubbing along upper portion by spine and a reddish smudge that looks like it might have been from the publisher. A really fun vintage gem with amazing period cover art! Will ship promptly, carefully packaged and fully insured. An interesting sidenote: This story was recycled by the author when he was writing for Timely Comics - the predecessor to Marvel Comics in Captain America #23 & 26.
